  My font of choice for posting is Times New Roman (12) but this morning the Visual Editor switched this to a font I don’t recognize. How can I make it “go back” to the font used on the blog?

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

  The font in my visual editor has changed too. I can’t provide a link because the actual post has the usual font I chose, but when writing it I have this other font (Arial) I don’t like, it used to be the same as the finished version.

  Hello there,
  As both of you are using the Pilcrow theme I’m going to flag this thread for Staff attention. We Volunteers can’t view “previews” of draft posts or pages but Staff can.

  I am using the Pilcrow theme http://desertbeacon.wordpress.com/
  And I’m having the same problem as moloch981, the post is in Times Roman 12 but the editor is in what I guess is Arial. What’s happened?

  The font in the editor changed months ago now to Consolas
  The font stack use in the HTML editor is Consolas, Monaco, Monospace.

  I’m not aware of it being changed again.

  Something happened recently because it is only today that I’ve found my Visual Editor using a font other than the Times Roman I had been using. Is there some way to set the font for the visual editing?

  Yes, @michaelfields, can you please check the Matala theme, as well? The same thing is happening there.
