Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 20251
user-defined default font for all applications (not only wordprocessor)
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:32:24 UTC
In the settings its possible to change the default-fonts for the writer. But the Spreadsheet-application always uses "Albany"-font as default, and I can't change this. Please add an option to the settings to allow changing the default spreadsheet-font.
Hi Norbert, You can change the default font by defining a default template, saving it into a template folder and defining it as default template. Hi Bettina, 1 4 u. Frank
But in the writer the default font can be defined in the options. Why not also doing so in the spreadsheet application?
Hello Norbert2, there is also the function 'Apply replacement table' as a workaround for changing the font for each new spreadsheed to be created (accessible via Tools / Options / StarOffice / Fonts). But that will not change all the font settings in the dialogs, it is just the visualization of the font at typing. But in principle it should be possible to easy change the default font for each application. Summary is extended for all apps concerned.
Component changed to framework (concerns all apps).

I agree. There should be a possibility for ALL apps to set their default font, not only the writer.
I mean separate default-font-options for each OOo-application, like Bettina suggests. (Not one global option.)
It seems issue #2730 is duplicate of this issue or vice verse.
