Set "Arial" as the default font in the text editor in Sitecore

Question

What is the best way to set Arial font as the default font in the text editor in Sitecore 8? I have looked around and seen instructions on changing the toolsfile.xml. Is that correct?

Answer 1

From what I know default setting for RTE (at least for the one in Content Editor) is font-family: Arial, sans-serif; (set in /default.css file).

You can override it e.g. by changing the content of sitecore\shell\Controls\Rich Text Editor\Editor.css and adding body { font-family: another-font }.

You may need to clear your browser cache before you can see the change in RTE.
