When opening a new document in TexShop I always get back to Helvetica 12 fonts.
Changing the fonts to say, Arial 24 (Source > Font > Show Fonts) will work on the current document but I can not make it the default font. Is there such a possibility?

Re: Font size for TexShop documents
elig,
Glad to see that you found your answer.
Just FYI...you can also change your font in the preamble of your tex document with the \usepackage{} command. I didn't change my default (but that info is good to know). I did, however, add this line into my preamble....
\usepackage{palatino,lettrine}
....to change my font. The lettrine option allowed me to do some extra formatting at the beginning of each chapter that makes it appear as if I've done a lot of work when I really haven't. But again this is just my example. You might not want to use it based on the type of document you are building.
This is a little off the subject but hopefully i didn't bore you too much.
