How do you change the font InDesign uses when no style is applied?

All my InDesign templates (CS4) are now looking for [Times (T1)] in odd places such as spaces between words in a header, the space after the last period in a paragraph or blank returns between paragraphs. I tried all the normal suggestions (checking every character and paragraph style including "basic paragraph", selecting a font in the charater pallette with and without a document open, and even clearing indesign preferences and cache files). After all this, I created a brand new blank document to test whether or not this occured in anything other than my template files. I didn't create any styles at this point, just drew a text box and started typing. In the new document the first line is in the font I chose, but when I hit return the next is in Times. It appears that after the return InDesign switches from Basic Paragraph back to "no styles". Is there a way to change this default font or prevent blank spaces and returns between paragraphs from turning to this setting? Thanks for any suggestions. With one file it's not that big of a deal to find and replace but when you start working with a book containing many files it is quite a hassle to wade through the missing font windows in order to verify it is only this and not an actual font missing. 

With no documents open.
Go the Paragraph Styles Panel
Clear Overides for the Basic Paragraph
Edit the style
And change "Apply Next Style" to "[Same Style]"

  • How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?

    How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?  I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail.  Changing the screen density is not a good option.
    Thanks

    I downloaded Tinkertool.  Found the font section and increased the size of most selections.  The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label.  The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4.  Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either.  I'll keep working.  Restarted all apps after changes as well.

  • How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels

    How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels ? I used to be able to do this but in Mavericks this ability seems to have gone away. Am I missing something ?

    Actually in my case it doesn't work. I used to be able to pull up the font window with it but the button merely flickers when I click it. The image selection button and font color both are functional. WEIRD. I don't think this is a Mavericks issue as I recall having it come up with one of my user profiles before installing. Now I can't make it happen with either of my user profiles.
    I don't seem to have printing issues in other applications. And I recently reset the fonts in a futile attempt to correct this.
    I may post a new topic in Mail Contacts and Calendar if there is no response here after a bit.

  • How do you change the font in WPC Link List Header ...

    Does any one know how/where to change the font in Web Page Composer on the Link List Header?  I am using the Link List header delivered with the product. 
    It looks like it is pulling arial font but we are adding content in a different font in the paragraphs and want the fonts to be the same.  Is there something I can change in the theme?
    thanks
    Angie.

    You need to go to the
    Content Adminstration/KM Content/etc/wpceditor/css/runtime  and look in the sdn_general.css file.  The controls are all there.  You can rename or create a new style sheet as this will modify all WPC sites.

  • How do you change the font size in grey area of toolbar?

    How can I change the font on the grey area to make it bigger? I updated to mountain lion and it changed the font.

    Those are hard coded, and cannot be changed as far as I know, without delving into the application itself with a code editor.

  • How do you change the font size under the event and iphoto view photos?

    I would like to change the font size in iPhoto under the photos that appear in the Events view and in the Photos view. I was told by a tech at Apple that it cannot be done because it is built into the software. What you see is what you get. That seems unusual because the font size in the Photo view is smaller than that in the Events view. The Font control that exists in File/Edit are for fonts used when you open a photo and add your own captionI and have nothing to do with the various views. Does anyone know a way to do this?   Thanks

    I'm afraid it really is WYSIWYG. It can't be changed.  You can send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • How do you change the font in multiple text boxes?

    I just started using illustrator and I can't figure this one out.  Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
    I made a bunch of text boxes using the type tool.  Is there a way I can link the boxes and easily change the font?
    Thanks,
    Justin

    You select the text frames holding dow the shift keys then go to Type>Thread text, I would select the text frames in the order you wan them threaded.
    Then once threaded you click the text tool inside of one of the text strings and do a command A to select all the text and then choose any method of changing the font such as Character Panel, Control Panel or Type>Font menu item.
    you can also look into creating Paragraph styles as well.

  • How do you change the font and size in descriptions in iPhoto?

    When I add a description to a photo in a slide show, it appears in only one font size and one continuous line across the frame.  Is there any way to change the font and size?  Can the description be multiple short lines instead of one long one?

    You can't.  It's hard coded into the application.  You can send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html.

  • How do you change the font in an HTML snippet??

    I found a great snippet to add some scrolling text on a website, but I can't figure out how to change the font of the text that scrolls. Here is the code:
    <MARQUEE bgcolor="white" direction="left" loop="true" width=100%">Introducing the newly published book by Christopher J. Irelan, Ph.D. - the Psychology guy - and Julie L. Ireland, "It's Not Rocket Surgery"</MARQUEE>
    Where is the command for the font??
    Thanks!
    Kim

    Thanks for all the suggestions.
    Wyodoor - what I didn't see in your post was a specified font style. Where could I include that in the code?
    I was able to change the font color and the background color myself, but I don't know where or how to add a specified font style.
    My site is primarily in Trebuchet MS, and this code seems to put the text as Times or something similar.
    Thanks!
