n Fixed Font: In a fixed font, every character is allocated the same width. Dreamweaver uses your
chosen fixed font to depict preformatted-styled text.
n Code View: The Code View font is used by Dreamweaver??™s built-in text editor. You should probably
use a monospaced font such as Courier or Monaco. A monospaced font makes it easy to count
characters, which is often necessary when debugging your code.
For all font options, select your font by clicking the list and highlighting your choice of font. Change the
font size by selecting the value in the Size text box or by typing in a new number.

Use the Fonts category to set the font encoding for each Web page and the fonts you use when programming.
In Windows, if you select Unicode from the Font Settings list, a special option, Use Dynamic Font Mapping,
appears. When this option is selected, Dreamweaver examines the current font family to make sure all the
required glyphs are available. If they are not, the font family is replaced with a similar one that does keep the
unknown character symbol??”the blank rectangle??”from appearing. It is recommended that you enable this
option to preserve readability. The Macintosh always relies on dynamic mapping for the Unicode setting.
