Available Fonts

Post by JAHartman »

Hi,

I am working with a stylesheet in which I want to change the font for the body styles from Arial to Verdana; however, Verdana is not on the list when I try to change it. It is an installed font on my computer and it is available in another stylesheet. I tried creating a new style instead of modifying the existing style and the Verdana font is still not listed. Is there something else I need to do to get the stylesheet to list this font?

Thanks,
Judy

Hi Judy,

Just to confirm...

Open your stylesheet in advanced view in the stylesheet editor.
Select the body tag, make sure the stylesheet editor is displaying default medium and assorted relevant properties from the drop-down lists.
Expand the font properties group and click on the font-family property.
In the resulting dialog box, select Defined font sets and click Define set...

You should now be able to add Verdana to a font family.

Interestingly, Verdana, sans-serif is one of my installed families!
