If you want to change the +Body style, you need to change the style, which is also easy to do, when you know where to look.įrom a new message form (actually, any new item will do), switch to the Format text tab and expand the Change Style button.
However, these options won't change the font assigned to +Body style which is the default 'font' in Outlook 2007/2010. You can select a Theme (stationery) to use, if desired, but specific stationeries may have font assignments which override the settings in this dialog.
('Sticky' Notes have their own font setting.) The font for composing and reading plain text messages is also used when 'read as plain text' is enabled. The font for new mail messages is used for composing HTML email and in the notes field of calendar, contacts, and task items. Changing the default fonts in Outlook is easy: just go into the Stationery and Fonts dialog 1 and assign new fonts.
