Setting/Changing Default Font For Mail

A question that I was unable to find the answer to in Notes Help… Is there a way to change the default font when creating a new notes memo from “Default Sans Sarif” to another font via some preference setting? I do know that you can change the default font if I break open designer and change the font setting for the Rich Text body field but I don’t want to go that route. All help is appreciated.

Hi Rob,

You can change the default font in File → Preferences → User Preferences. On the “Basics” tab, click the “Default Fonts” button. Note that by changing the default font, you may inadvertantly change some of the other default fonts used in the notes client.

Cheers

have you tried the following? May not be the answer you are looking for as it only changes font size, but it’s worth a try…To add large font settings to your NOTES.INI file

NOTES.INI is a configuration file, located in your Notes directory, that stores information about your personal Notes installation. If you need to use larger fonts at all times, close Notes, open your NOTES.INI file, and add the following setting as a new line anywhere in the file:

Display_font_adjustment=n

Here, n is the number of points added to the default size and is a number between 0 and 25. For example, if you want to increase the font size to 5, you would type:

Display_font_adjustment=5

Save your NOTES.INI file after you add the new font line, and then re-open Notes.
