# Customizing Post Editor Fonts

By default, MarsEdit uses Helvetica for Rich Text and Menlo for Plain Text. You may choose another font to suit your tastes.

1. Choose MarsEdit > Preferences… from the menu bar.
2. Click the Editing tab.
3. Click the Choose… button next to the font label for the Rich or HTML editing font.
4. Choose a new font from the standard font panel.

Post Editor font preferences only affect the appearance of the MarsEdit editor. These font selections do not affect the styles of your published content.
