SYMPTOMSIn FrontPage Editor, if you select a proportional font in the Font Options dialog box (Tools menu), the font will not be used by the Web browser. CAUSEThe font you select in the Font Options dialog box in FrontPage Editor is used as the default display font in FrontPage Editor only. The font selections in the Font Options dialog box are intended to be used with non- English language character sets. Since this font is used as the display font in FrontPage Editor, HTML font instructions are not written to the page. Therefore, when you open the page in a Web browser, the browser substitutes its own default display font and ignores the font choice you made in the Font Options dialog box. RESOLUTIONIn FrontPage Editor, use either of the following methods to change the font. Method 1: Apply Font Formatting to a SelectionTo apply font formatting to selected text, follow these steps:
Method 2: Set the Font Option before You Type Your TextBefore you type your text, click Font Options on the Tools menu and select the proportional font you want to use.NOTE: By selecting a proportional font, you are simply changing the default display font used in the FrontPage Editor. STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. MORE INFORMATION
FrontPage allows you to author Webs in multiple languages by setting fonts
in the Font Options dialog box. In order to display languages that do not
use the Roman alphabet, you can create a correspondence between a language
code page and a default display font. This allows you to read the files
using that code page. Only FrontPage Editor uses this correspondence.
The Web browser will reference the required code page and default display
font installed on the international site.
