Hello,

How do I set the default font for any new text frames I create.

I have several thousand InDesign templates in which the default font is set to a font that is no longer licenced and therefore requires changing.

I already have a script which will open each template and change the first insertion point of any (empty) text frame to a new font but any new text frames created in these templates still want to use the unlicensed font.

Thanks for any assistance.
