NExS allows you to select default font characteristics to define the
appearance of the spreadsheet on the display in addition to the
default type of printed output. These fonts are defined by three font
characteristics: family, style, and size. The default font settings
for the whole sheet are changed in the Cell Defaults dialog box
from the Options menu. However, you can control the font
characteristics for the individual cell or range of cells by using
the Font Family, Font Style, and Font Size options
from the Format menu.
To change the default font characteristics:
- Select Cell Defaults from the Options menu. NExS
displays the Cell Defaults dialog box as shown in
Figure 8.1.

desired font family.
- Click the Font Style option button and select the
desired font style.
- Click the Font Size option button and select the
desired font style.
- Apply your selection by clicking OK or Apply.
