Hi John,

I am having a problem setting the default font in calc. This is usually

if I start from the first menu, I get a font called 'arial' (sounds like
a mermaid or m$).  Since I am using an oss program, i would prefer to
use an oss font, e.g. freesans. per help, I an supposed to open a Write
sheet and set the font in the 'tools' section.  This works for write,
not for calc.

Assistance?

The font is set in the document template.

Take an new document.
Open "Styles and Formatting" window. Right click style "Default", then "Modify...".
Goto tab "Font" and choose your favorite font. OK.
Save the document as template.
Set this template as your default template.

How to do this depends on your LibreOffice version, because a new Template Manager has been developed.

Kind regards
Regina
I had failed to right click on default. But I do not see any dialogue or check box to make this the default template. I looked in 'save', 'save as' and 'save as template'.

Hi. It could be under Commands if you see that anywhere. It would certainly be much easier if there was a simple "Save as Default Template".
