Default Font - Preview Mode

I use Arial as my default font in design view for all new pages in my site. However, when I preview the page, it displays as Times Roman. I go back to Design View, change the font to any other font and then back to Arial and go to preview and it displays in Arial. Quirky? Anybody have the same issue? I already checked in the default font section of tools>page otions>deafult fonts. Both proportinal AND fixed are set at Arial.

Hope somebody can shed some light on this. thanks...

RE: Default Font - Preview Mode (in reply to rugrat)

calling it the default font is very misleading. What they mean by that is IF you do not specify a font in FrontPage then that is the font you will see as you have not told FrontPage what font to use it has to use something ..... BUT that is only for FrontPage .... if you want your viewer to see a particular font then you must specify it.

Thanks Malc...

Pretty sure I did that in Tools>Page Options. Can you you tell me where to do that so i can verify?

Thanks again...
