Setting the default display fonts for Edit mode
When you have text in a document to which you have not applied a specific font, Namo WebEditor displays the text in one of the default fonts specified in the Preferences dialog box. There are two default fonts: a proportional font, used for most text, and a fixed-width font, used for <pre> and <code> elements. Initially, these default fonts are set to 12pt Times New Roman and 10pt Courier New, respectively, but you can change them to whatever font and size you wish.
It is important to realize that the default display fonts only apply in Namo WebEditor’s Edit mode. When a document that contains text with no specified font is viewed in a browser, the browser will display the text in its own default font, which may not be the same as Namo WebEditor’s default font. If you want to make sure the text you see in Edit mode uses the same font as it will in a browser, you need to apply a specific font to it—either through the Font command on the Format menu or by applying a style.
