  I noticed my latest post had a different font than my others. It looks like Arial or something similar; whatever font the text is in HTML mode when composing a post. The problem is that the rest of my posts are in Times New Roman (the text in Visual mode). When I click on the post title and view it by itself, it’s in TNR; but on the home page it is still in Arial.

  Is there a way to keep it in the same font as Visual mode?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Actually, I think my other text is in Arial. Visual Mode looks more like Calibri.

  Go to settings > Writing and select “WordPress should correct invalidly nested XHTML automatically” and then click “Save Changes.”

  The probelem could result form importing content, or from copying and pasting text containing invalid HTML without using icon 5 o 6 in Row 2 of the Visual editor.

  Go to your latest post, open it in the editor, make one minor change such as adding a space and then deleting it, and then click “Update Post.” Check your blog and see if it is back to normal.

  If it’s not, go to your latest post, open it in the editor and stwitch to the HTML editor, then look for an open HTML tag and close it. Check your blog again and see if it is back to normal.

  The template underlying your theme is coded to provide a specific font family or style. The options for changing fonts in wordpress.com blogs are contained here > http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2010/02/04/changing-fonts-in-wordpress-com-blogs/
