A really useful tool for changing fonts and such is firebug – it will let you select an element on your page and then find out where it is inheriting all of its CSS from. You may find that one item is utilising more than one section of your CSS file.
Your paragraphs (the bit I assume you want to change?) are using the following:
font-family: "Times New Roman",Times,serif;
So you might want to try changing that?

Thanks!
I actually found out there was another Stylesheet in the editor called “Visual Editor Stylesheet”. I could change the font there (it was Arial before). I actually don’t know the difference between those two… I’m taking over from another designer, so it’s a bit of a trial and error for me right now :). I also wanted to chnage the font size in the over and all text, but didn’t manage that yet. I though it would be listed in “body” but if I change there nthing happens… Any idea?
p {
color: #4A4A4A;
font-family: "Times New Roman",Times,serif;
font-size: 17px;
line-height: 1.6;
}
Should do the trick in your style.css (editing it with firebug changes it for me)
I really recommend firebug then you no long will have to hunt down these answers: http://getfirebug.com/
Edit: firebug is used on firefox. Chrome has something similar also.

Thanks! I’ll try it! Although the code didn’t change the P text… strange. It’s like it’s overridden by something.
