Is there a way to set Arial as the default font for my website? It is now
defafault to Time New Roman and I am constantly having to change the text on
my pages to Arial.
 
set the font in a style sheet

<style>
body
{ font-family: arial, verdana, trebuchet ms;
font-size: 10pt;
}
</style>

put the above in the <head> section of all pages, or in the dynamic web
template in FP2003.


The above will then display in arial, 10pt - if Arial is not on the user's
computer it will try verdana and trebuchet in turn (until it finds one that
is installed), otherwise it will use times roman (I think).

Times roman and Arial seem to be the most common and would be available on
most if not all systems.

There is a way to change the "default" font but I believe that is just the
"design view" font - not the actual font displayed on the web page in a
browser. That needs to be set by "font" tags or CSS.

1) Go to Page options (Tools Menu) then "Default Fonts" tab.
2) Choose Arial font.

As I said this might only change the "design view" default font, not the
actual font for the web page itself when viewed in a browser.
