Default font selection
Is it possible to force Inkscape to use a certain font as the default in the Text tool?
My install seems to have defaulted recently to "IM Fell Flowers" which is a handsome decorative set of woodcut flowers and other printer's decorations, but not something useful on a day to day basis. Former it used something basic and readable like Liberation Sans.
I've had a quick rummage through the various Preferences windows and the documentation, and can't find anything relevant.
Inkscape 0.48.x on Ubuntu, if that matters.
Thanks,

Open 'Text > Text and Font…', select the font you want to use as new default, and click on the 'Set as default' button in the lower left corner of the dialog.

Cheers, that works. I've been using Inkscape for years and never noticed that "Use As Default" button right there on the main font dialogue...
Thanks again,
