# Set the font and size of a script

Text in the script windows appears in 9-point Monaco as the default.  You can change the default font and size of the text in your script window using two properties:

```
the scriptTextFont
the scriptTextSize
```

These two properties affect all script windows—you can’t set the font and style of each script window separately.

For example, to set the font and size of the script windows to 10-point Geneva, type the following messages into the Message box, and press Return:

```
set the scriptTextFont to "Geneva"
set the scriptTextSize to 10
```
