Question

When will Illustrator let users set a default font? After 30+ years, I shouldn't have to use Myriad, create templates, or change the font for every project. The software supports this choice; users should be able to set it once.

    In addition to using the method demonstrated in Monika’s video you might want to register a New Feature Request for a simpler way to set the default font. You can do so at https://illustrator.uservoice.com/forums/333657-illustrator-desktop-feature-requests.
