You can modify all text boxes properties (page by page) by selecting any text box in any page then from Drawing Tools hit Selection Pane, after that select the first one in the list press Shift then hit the last text box in that list (or by pressing Ctrl and click on the next text box if there are any shapes among them) now you can adjust text in the boxes as the desired for all the text boxes in the same page.
This method could apply for single page at once only.
