# Changing the default font

 * I’m running RichWP MasterGrid theme and wondered how you change the default editing
   font?
 * When I publish a post, such as this one:
 * the font I want actually appears on the site, but the editing font when I’m writing
   a post is too small. I have recently moved my site to being self-hosted but I’m
   having to use my former blog (Twenty Thirteen theme) through WP to edit posts
   as the editing font there was right.
 * I have fiddled with the ‘Editor’ code under ‘Appearance’ but nothing has changed.
   I think that the font I’m after is Source Sans Pro, but I can’t be sure (see 
   link above).
 * Many thanks,
 * Andy.

 * There is no such theme (“RichWP MasterGrid”) in the WP theme repo.
 * You may want to contact the theme’s vender.

 * OK, in terms of the WordPress dashboard generally, how would you go about this?

 * This plugin is really great for tweaking the CSS of the admin interface:
