Changing Default Font in Acrobat 7 and/or Acrobat Reader 9
Anyone know how to change the Default Font in Acrobat 7 and/or Acrobat Reader 9? Whenever I open a PDF document the text defaults to a Times New Roman or basic font. Can we change the default font?
The fonts are defined as part of the created PDF. If you mean something else, then please explain. A PDF is designed to replicate the document it was created from and thus the fonts are defined by the originating document. If you do not have the font and it is not embedded, then Acrobat tries to find a close version to substitute.

How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the Bookmarks Library?
How does one change the font size for folders and/or file lists in the '''Bookmarks''' Library?
Since the upgrade to version 9.0.1 of Firefox, the Bookmarks feature changes are confusing me. They seem to be confusing themselves as well. The list of bookmarks has changed. The font size is so small that my aging eyes cannot read it without fogging the screen with my breath. Some folders are out of alphabetical order (where I know they were previously good), and some are missing altogether (folders to which I frequently add references).
As for missing or deranged files or folders, was there something that I should have done or now need to do to recover those after the upgrade (or before)?
With regard to font size,
1. there is no “Edit Bookmarks” or like option to edit the list in this version
2. the “zoom” option in the “view” list of functions is greyed out when in “Show All Bookmarks” window
3. expanding the browser window has no effect on font size
4. “Preferences” settings for font size has no effect in that window either, including advanced settings
5. “Help” offers none that I can find.
Can any of you Help?!?Maybe this extension helps:

Default font set in mail and ... can't change it
My default font is currently set to Times in Mail, I have no clue why it was updated after installing Maverics, other computers have it set to Helvetica in my office.
The bigger problem is none of us can change our default font ... or font in general from any menu, font selector etc in Mail!!!!
Is anyone having this same problem? Any solutions?I have resolved this problem...
Root of the problem.
- Maverics installed dupicates of all of my system fonts creating conflicts.
Solution.
- In Font Book App and resolve all the conflicts. -
Unable to change default font in Themes
I have been trying unsuccessfully to change the default font in a theme. When I change the font in one of the master slides and click the Format/Advanced menu item, the "Save as Default for Current Theme" is grayed out, as all all the other options in the Advanced menu. I've tried the same thing from a slide in the presentation [not a master slide] and the same thing occurs.
Any ideas as to what is going on and how I can access this command? Otherwise I'll have to go through each and every master slide and make the change [and that might still not work]. Thanks for any help.

How to cahnge all fon'ts in windows 8.1 to Tahoma 8 for example?This is supposed to be a better program than Win 8.
Did someone from Microsoft Marketing tell you that? Maybe a fanboy? :)
In all seriousness it's not better in any obvious way than Win 8, nor is it really any better than Win 7. It can be tweaked to be just about as good. And to be fair, it's stable.
I mean yes, we all expected Win 8.1 to be better than its predecessors
- software releases are supposed to give you some value, some good reason to upgrade - but that kind of goes away when the software maker feels they have a captive audience as Microsoft does, and especially when they still have plenty of businesses
buying Win 7, which pays their bills.
But like it or not, removed choices or not, apparently Windows 8 is here to stay. Joshua up above says "You fail", but have they really? Once you're patching it up to make it usable they've already got your license fee, and your
alternatives to running Windows are what, exactly?

How to change default fonts in Indesign
I've tried the usual recommended steps - open InDesign, select a font, then close the program, etc. -- but nothing seems to work. Every style reverts to MetaPlus. Help!
Respectfully, I've tried this, and I'm not looking for suggested working solutions as I have a pretty clear understanding of how to set defaults and how to utilize paragraph styles. I'm simply pointing out that contrary to what you're saying, setting the font in the character palette does NOT change the true default font in my experience (CS4, OS10.4.11). I do understand that the default is set with no documents open by then selecting the font in the character palette.
I'm attaching 2 screen shots to show you that I'm not making this up. In the first you can hopefully see I've clearly set the "default" to Arial now.
In the second I've created a new document and a new paragraph style. You can see it already considers "Arial" as deviating from the base "No Paragraph Style" and if you click on "Reset to Base" you will see that sure enough, the true default font is still Geneva (Geneva in my case as outlined in my previous post).
Generally, this isn't much of a problem. As you've all pointed out we can accept that these additions are the new default for a new paragraph style, but it really isn't changing the true default font. Depending on your working environment and the experience of the designers this may be good enough. For my environment I'm looking for the ability to change the true default font and the only solution I've come across is the one from my previous post (deleting preferences). -
How to change default font in Thunderbird interface
I know this question has been asked and discussed at length, but creating a question appears to be the only way to create an account. If there is another way, please tell.
To the question at hand, relying on an add-on for a simple configuration change such as modifying the UI font is really stretching things. I spent ages trolling through all the options in the default installation, and then went googling before I eventually found the add-on.
I'm surprised it took so long to get the actual message across; perhaps it was ppl thinking differently, using different OSes, I don't know, but I recognized it straight away because it was exactly what I was trying to do. Change the font of the entire UI so that I could actually read it. The default is way too small for me. Changing the message text, etc., is simple; changing the entire UI is not. And again, don't want to change every app, only Thunderbird. I'm using Fedora 21.
It might be worth considering that if so many ppl ask the same question, or have the same issue, then it might be worth making the "extension" part of the base functionality.Use the Theme Font Size Changer add-on.
That's the answer, unless you choose to fiddle with css coding. I think Thunderbird's design has been caught out by newer high resolution displays. This was a rather less common request a few years ago. The mac retina displays got this particular ball rolling. -
How to change default font in Photoshop CS5
Is there a simple way to change the default font from Felix Tilting to Verdana in Photoshop CS5
The character palette will remember the last font you used with any of the text tools. If it doesn't, then something is afoot, but your rather vague post doesn't allow any specific pointers. If you have issues, you need to explain nad provide some system info and so on...

How to change default font in Numbers?
Is it possible to somehow change the default font when creating new documents in Numbers from "Helvetica Neue" to just "Helvetica", size 11? Changing the font and saving the document as new template simply does not work since the font in newly created tables in the new document using the new template still falls back to "Helvetica Neue".
Here is an enhanced version.
You may use it with the three components of iWorks.
It is also available for free on my iDisk:

Hi there!
I have a problem with my macbook pro MC700. I got 23' monitor, keyboard and mouse connected to it, but system fonts are too small and it's hard to read em, how can I change font size? In windows7 even default fonts are bigger and there is an option to control em making even bigger for easy read and so on, where these settings in mac os x 10.6.8?For things like filenames, you can adjust that in the View Options screen for the Desktop or any active folder. You can access View Options via the View menu, or by pressing Command-J
There is no setting to adjust the size of the font used in the menubar.
Some programs allow you to adjust default font settings - check in the Preferences for each program for that setting.
