    A font stack that sticks to all sans-serif fonts would have been a better suggestion, especially ones that other operating systems may have a chance of falling back to if Arial is not available.

    Also,, no need for quotes around Arial - it's a single word.

    A typical stack would be:

    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma, sans-serif;

    The fonts i used in my reply are an example only.

    Interesting comment on the qoutes Gary because many of the StudioPress child themes use qoutes on single word font names.

    I am also trying to change the nav menu fonts.

    I changes the CSS to

    /* Header / Primary / Secondary Navigation
    ------------------------------------------------------------ */
    
    .menu-primary,
    .menu-secondary {
    	clear: both;
    	color: #222;
    	font-family: "Oswald", Helvetica, sans-serif;
    	margin: 0 auto;
    	overflow: hidden;
    	width: 100%;
    }
    

    bu the appearance didn't change. Any ideas why?

    Hello!

    I'm trying to change this menu font too http://tanyavega.com/wp-content/uploads/Menu-screenshot.jpg
    I've change the textarea font before and unfortunately this menu font changed as well.

    How can I change only this menu font to Helvetica?

    Thank you in advance.
