Changing default font

R

RMcFarron

This is really a nit, but does anyone know how to change the default font for Project? I'm using Project 2002, if it matters. I've changed the font in all the other Office products, but can't figure this one out

Any help is appreciated.

For a given project, it's in Format | Text styles. Note that each View
has to be customized (or, you could read that as "each View can have
individual customizations" <g>)>

As for making the fonts a default across all projects, you'd have to make
the changes and save them as a template. New project files would have to
be started by opening the template.

I just tried it again and it works for me.

1. I created a blank project with the fonts, etc., the way you want.
2. I clicked on File | Save As ... and set "Save as type" to template.
This template was saved (by default) in a special templates folder.
3. I closed the file
4. I clicked on File | New and in the task pane looked under "templates"
and selected the location
5. I selected the appropriate template

Thanks, John. I tried this, but it still makes any new tasks I add in
the default Ariel 8 font. I've been doing a 'Select All' and change the
font before I publish, but it's a pain.

Thought there might be an easier way!
