Frontpage 2003 Previews Wrong Font

G

Guest

For some strange reason, FP is now generating all fonts on new pages as 'new
times roman' with no format when I preview in IE6. The design mode shows them
to be aerial as requested with formatting. Other pages do preview correctly,
so I guess it's not the browser.

I have checked various settings, all point to aerial where appropiate. I
have even tried copy working pages, overwrite or add new text. Still they
preview in NTR.
A Bug?

Have you set the default font in FrontPage to Arial? If so, in Design
view all the text on the page will display as Arial. The default font
shows where you have NOT formatted the text. (I use "Bradley Hand ITC"
as default font, since it is readable and very distinct from any
formatted fonts I use).
Have you selected all the text on the page and set this to Arial?

Yes, the default has been set to aerial. I have also selected all and set.
Still getting the New times roman in preview. Weird!

You have to actually assign fonts to your text either via the font dialog or with CSS. The default
font setting only applies to how you see the text while working FP design view, not how the page
will render in a browser.
