# Fonts

Substitutes a font with a font of your choice. The substitution only replaces a font when it is displayed on screen or during printing. It does not change the font specified in your document formatting.

If you want, you can override the default substitution font that your operating system uses when it encounters an unavailable font in a document.

To access this command...

Choose LibreOffice - PreferencesTools - Options - LibreOffice - Fonts.

Font replacement also affects the display of fonts on the LibreOffice user interface.

Some options cannot be reset once edited. Either edit back the changes manually or click Cancel and reopen the Options dialogue box.
