default fonts in Framemaker 6

[Bodvar Bjorgvinsson]

Maybe you could try to change the following in the maker.ini file:
QUOTE
; Default used to map unknown fonts:
;
DefaultFamily=Times New Roman, Tms Rmn
DefaultAngle=Regular
DefaultVariation=Regular
DefaultWeight=Regular
DefaultSize=12
UNQUOTE
... to something of your liking.

I have not tried this myself, so no guarantee.

Bodvar.
