Adobe Indesign CS2 help - Font problem

[Suave 10]

Can someone help please

 

Whenever I create a new document in indesign, when I create a new text box the font displayed is Times New Roman (OTF) but when I go to preflight it says the font cannot be found??

 

How can I change the font so for example whenever I open a new text box, the Arial font or another loads up instead?

 

Thanks

That's excellent thanks!

 

For those who want to know how this is done - here goes:

 

• Load up Indesign
  
• When you come to the empty screen - do NOT create any document
  
• Instead click on the type tool in the control pallete
  
• then change the font / font size to whatever you prefer
  
• then just close the program
  
• Next time you load, indesign will save that setting
  

 

Thanks again

No problem. I've used Indesign for a very, very long time and even I didn't know that one until you asked.

The same goes for any other default settings you want - colour palette, style sheets, H&Js, whatever.
