Is there a way I can change what font my blog publishes in, besides the usual Arial, Times, Trebuchet, Verdana, etc?
 
Doesn't the reader's computer have to have ths same fonts in order to see them so that's why it's better to use a more common font? If you used a custom font then you'd see it but others who didn't have it would see whatever their browser defaulted to. at least that's how i think it works.
 
Mimi's right. Technically you could choose any font you want, but the only people who will see it as you intended are those who happen to have that font installed, otherwise they'll just see whatever the code defaults too. I know in Wordpress there's a plugin that will let you use any font you want for the post titles but I don't know about Blogger.
 
You can change it, you have to do it in the HTML.

You add a line in the section you want to change - body, wrapper, posts, etc
font:insertfont;
Or find that line in the section and change it from $bodyfont to the font name you want to use.


Or you can go up into the Variable definitions and find the one you want to edit such as "body font" and then change the default font from what is listed to what you want to use.

If you go with any of the standard windows fonts or those that come with common use programs odds are everyone will see the font you want to use.
