In Front Page 2000, this information comes from the help wizard, when I entered "default font" in the index window..
-------
Set the default display font for a language or character set
You can set the default display font for a language or character set. Then, when no font is applied to text, FrontPage uses this default font to display the text. This setting only affects how pages are displayed in Microsoft FrontPage, not how the page is displayed in a Web browser.
On the Tools menu, click Page Options, and then click the Default Font tab.
In the Language (character set) box, select the language or character set for which you want to set a default display font.
In the Default proportional font box, select a proportional font for the selected language or character set. The list includes all of the proportional fonts installed on your computer.
In the Default fixed-width font box, select a fixed-width font for the selected language or character set (the fixed-width font is also used to display text on the HTML tab in Page view). The list includes all of the fixed-width fonts installed on your computer. If the selected language or character set does not support fixed-width fonts, this option is not available.

Have a great day.

thanks for your help, but that did not really help......
i already had done that, what i want to do is change the default font in front page that will also be displayed on the web when I up load my web. I also want to change the default size of the default font. In other words, I want to use ms sans serif 10 pt font. and presently it is Times 12 pt. It is very time consuming to change each entry when i update or add a page to my web.

How about trying this:
Created a style sheet on the page, indicating the font and its alternatives (for some reason, having it linked to a style sheet does not work in Netscape; it goes back to the default). Change all the other stuff like background (which should not be on Automatic, by the way; older browsers will show it as gray), link colors, etc. Then saved it as a template that can be reused again and again.
