Setting Web Fonts
Summary: Is your worksheet information destined for a Web page? Here's how you can specify the fonts that should be used when Excel generates the HTML code for those Web pages. (This tip works with Microsoft Excel 97, Excel 2000, Excel 2002, Excel 2003, and Excel 2007.)Starting with Excel 2000, Microsoft provided ways for you to have your Excel data available on the Web. You do this by saving your worksheet data in a Web-page format. You can specify which fonts you want Excel to use when it creates Web pages from the information in a workbook. You can set the default fonts that Excel uses by following these steps if you are using a version of Excel prior to Excel 2007:
- Choose Options from the Tools menu. Excel displays the Options dialog box.
- Make sure the General tab is selected. (Click here to see a related figure.)
- Click on the Web Options button. Excel displays the Web Options dialog box.
- Make sure the Fonts tab is selected. (Click here to see a related figure.)
- Using the Proportional Font drop-down list, select the font you want used as a default for your Web pages.
- Using the Fixed-width Font drop-down list, select the font you want used when displaying monospace information on your Web pages.
- Using the Size controls, specify the respective default sizes for the fonts.
- Click on OK to close the Web Options dialog box.
- Click on OK to close the Options dialog box.
If you are using Excel 2007, then you need to follow these steps, instead:
- Click the Office button and then click Excel Options. Excel displays the Excel Options dialog box.
- At the left side of the dialog box click Advanced.
- Scroll through the available options until you see the General section. (Click here to see a related figure.)
- Click on the Web Options button. Excel displays the Web Options dialog box.
- Make sure the Fonts tab is selected. (Click here to see a related figure.)
- Using the Proportional Font drop-down list, select the font you want used as a default for your Web pages.
- Using the Fixed-width Font drop-down list, select the font you want used when displaying monospace information on your Web pages.
- Using the Size controls, specify the respective default sizes for the fonts.
- Click on OK to close the Web Options dialog box.
- Click on OK to close the Excel Options dialog box.
