Default Fonts Feature

Details

Our drag-and-drop email editor allows you to setup default styles for various text elements within your message, such as the font style, colour and size, in just a few clicks. Default styles can be applied to links, headings or regular paragraph text - allowing you to quickly change the look and feel of your email.

How-to Guide

Apply Default Font Styles to Your Email

1. Select Messages from the sidebar.
2. Locate and open your email for editing.
3. When creating the text parts of your email, use the various heading styles provided in the styles dropdown (on the floating toolbar), as shown ...you can use Heading1, Heading2 or Heading3. By using these styles for your headings (as opposed to manually setting the font size, colour or formatting on each heading as you go), it means you can quickly & easily update the look of them across your entire email with just a few clicks.
   

Set or Change the Default Font Styles for Your Email

Now that you've built your email using some of the heading styles, we can easily update them all at the same time.

1. Let's start with an example where we want to change all of our Heading3 sections to purple, with the text in italics. Begin by selecting the Design tab to the right.
2. Scroll down to the Default Fonts panel.
3. Locate the Heading3 section here and change the font colour to purple, and enable the Italics option. Notice how all of the Heading3 sections in your email change too?
   
4. Next, lets change all of our text to dark grey. In the same panel, locate the Body Text section. If we set the font colour here to a dark grey, the changes are reflected in text areas across our entire email (unless a colour had already been set).
   
5. You can also adjust the link colour, link formatting (eg. with or without underline) - as well as the actual font type used. Adjust these settings as required and Save your email when done.

Reset / Apply the Defaults to the Entire Email

If you had already set custom sizes, fonts, styling and colours on your text before learning of the Default Fonts feature, you can still strip your entire email text of any custom font formatting - and reset it to use the formatting set in the Default Fonts panel...

1. With your email message open for editing, select the Design tab to the right.
2. Scroll down to the Default Fonts panel.
3. Click the Reset Email Styling option at the bottom of this panel. After confirming this, any text areas within your email will be reset to use the fonts, font style, font colours and sizing as per the specifications set within the Default Fonts panel.
   

Reset / Apply the Defaults on a Per-component Basis

You can also do the same thing on a component by component basis (instead of the entire email)..

1. With your email message open for editing.
2. Select the text-based component you wish to revert.
3. Click Apply Default from the floating options bar, as shown.
