A while back, I wrote about how to give the Universal Theme a face lift. If you follow the steps in that post, the base font for an APEX application with the Universal Theme can easily be changed.
While that's all well and good, sometimes you only want to change the font for a report, not the entire page. One of the applications that I'm building contains a number of IRs based mostly on log data. Thus, having that data in a monospaced font would make it a whole lot easier to read.
You can search Google Fonts for monospaced fonts by selecting only that option on the right-side menubar. You can also opt for the standard yet kinda boring Courier and achieve the same thing.
To implement this in your application, follow the steps in my other post, but stop shy of the final step. Instead of pasting in the text that I specify, paste in the following to the Custom CSS field in Theme Roller, using the name of the font you selected for the font-family:
This will only apply the monospaced font to IR data. Save your Theme Roller changes, and now, all of your IR data should be in a monospaced font. If you only need this on a specific page, then instead of pasting the code to Theme Roller, simply paste it into the specific page or pages Custom CSS region.
