 * Hi all I wonder if you can help,
 * I have migrated my website from dreamweaver onto wordpress now unfortunately 
   I think some pages have got coded in font.
 * I would like to get rid of this font so I can then mass change covert my pages
   to block. At the moment I am having to clear formatting individually.
 * I have tried the usual methods: dashboard – customize – global – font does not
   appear
 * Also tried to delete with a find and replace pluggin
 * font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif; – to nothing
 * But it doesn’t seem to pick it out
 * So any suggestions would be helpful,
 * Thanks
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fembedded-fonts%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * This looks like it will be quite time consuming to do. You currently have `<span
   >` tags around each separate piece of text that specifies the font for that piece
   of text. Here is an example:
 *     ```
       <h1 align="center"><span style="color: #666600; font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif; font-size: 300%;"><i>Dire<br />
       Badger</i></span></h1>
       ```
   
 * Another example:
 *     ```
       <td width="50%"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif;"><a href="twenty%20worlds%20Age%20of%20Discovery%20Empire%20bestiary.htm">To<br />
       Main Bestiary </a></span></td>
       ```
   
 * To replace all the fonts with the site-default you will need to edit the content
   to remove each `<span>` tag but leave the text inside it.

 * Thanks Daniel,
 * Kinda makes sense – the issue I have with that its currently 11,000 pages …so
   alot of deleting, when I tried on mass to go outside what I thought was the font
   code i.e style=”font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif;”
 * I was getting block recovery message from the page as I can only find/replace
   upto the text on either side.
 * Is there a way I can simultaneously delete both the < ‘and the’ /> sides at once.
   Leaving the text in the middle
