Need help with formatting

I am using FP2000 and am frustrated beyond belief. I have
several pages created that I am trying to set the font to
1pt in Comic Sans MS, I have saved it to several locations
but it will not save the settings. When I close the
document and re-open it, it reverts to several different
fonts, in different sizes and changes the page formatting.
Any help would be enormously appreciated. Thanks

I'm assuming 1pt is a typo.

Comic Sans is not a standard font...in other words if you have it on YOUR machine it will work...but if the viewer doesn't....they will see a default font. Best to stick with standard stuff...or create a .gif for the occassional odd ball font heading.

More to your point...do you have Comic Sans on your machine? Are you using a theme, template, or CSS?

No, actually 1pt. is the size I wanted. I was unaware that
comic sans was not a standard font. I have viewed the page
remotely from several other machines and it shows fine.
Not using a theme or a template, what is a CSS?
Thank you so much for your help.

You could open up the page in HTML view and manually go through and delete any <font...> markings to clear everything out and then go in and set it the way you want

Otherwise if you just typed the text, highlighting it all and doing a mass change should work

If you imported the text from Word or something else, there's probably tons of Spans and Divs and other things in there screwing it up though.

You are probably confusing 1pt with size 1 type, which are
two different ways of measuring type. pt is the
measurement in the printing industry. Size 1 is the
measurement for browsers, 1 being the smallest. If you
look at the drop-down box for type size, you'll see FP
displaying 1 (8pt), which means size 1 will appear
approximately 8 pt in print sizing.
