Author Font changed from Trebuchet MS to Verdana
Richard Mueller [MVP]

2007-03-20, 11:17 pm

I recently upgraded my FrontPage from 2002 to 2003. I use Trebuchet MS for
most of by web site, except for code fragments which use Courier New. Now I
notice my font in FrontPage has changed to almost all Verdana. I see several
days of work to fix this.

How did this happen? Can it be fixed easily?

All of my pages were created from the same theme (called Axis). It looks to
me like it has been modified. I think my actual web site is still OK, as few
if any pages have been modified since the upgrade. However, everything in
FrontPage looks different. I don't want to publish.

The default font in Axis theme in FP2003 is Verdana. This may have
changed from the default in FP2002.
To change the font:
Open the web and any page with the theme applied.
Format->theme
Select Axis (should be the Web Site default theme)
Click the drop down arrow and choose Customize
Click the Text button (in the section "What do you wish to customize")
Add "Trebuchet MS" to the font family list for each element in the
"Item" drop down list - don't forget the separating comma, and include
the quotes.
You may also have to change/add styles for other elements (th, td, li
etc.) using the "More Styles" button.

Save the theme with a new name, and apply the new theme to your web
site.

Thank you, that fixed the font. However, now that I have applied the new
theme, many other elements are different. My buttons, for example, take up
about twice as much room. I think I see were this is modified, by searching
for the correct graphics file, but I see a lot of work. Apparantly, the Axis
theme is very different. Is there some way to replace the new Axis theme
with the old?

If you still have the old version of FrontPage installed, replace the
theme with the Axis theme in that version. Then follow the customising
steps (without changing anything) and save the theme with a new name.
Apply this new theme.
When you open the site in FrontPage 2003, the newly named version of
Axis will be used.
