Fonts on Blogger

    Hi

    I have a blog hosted by Blogspot and only today I noticed that on my posts, the fonts are different.

    I write up all my posts in Word 2013 and copy/paste them into the post box and preview them and all looks fine, and everything was fine until I changed my template/layout recently and its only since then that the fonts have changed I think.

    I went into the admin section to try and set a font for all the posts but that option appears to be gone now and I can't edit or change any fonts within the admin section.

    Has one any idea of what may have gone wrong and is there any way that I can set one font within the admin section for all future posts?

    Many thanks.

    For the love of all that is good, do not ever copy and paste from a Microsoft product to anything that is HTML based.

    There is a way to transfer from Word to Blogger while retaining formatting: go via Google Docs. (more details about this here). Or you can just paste them into the HTML mode of the Post Editor, and apply formatting inside Blogger. (Hint: use the styles)

    To fix your current problems, I would suggest:

    1) set all posts that were made by copy-and-paste from Word back to draft.

    2) Apply a new template, of a totally different type to what you have now. (You can change back to the original template afterward if you want, but for now you just need to get rid of whatever shy*** Word may have put in there.)

    3) Work through each of your posts: edit it, go into HTML mode and delete the entire contents. And then replace the contents using a safe method as described above, and publish them again.


    After you've done all that, you should have a normally functioning template again, where you can choose the font for your post-text using the option in Template > Designer.
