A font scheme is a defined set of fonts associated with a publication. Within each font scheme, both a primary font and a secondary font are specified. Generally, a primary font is used for titles and headings, and a secondary font is used for body text.

Publisher provides a gallery of Built-In font schemes you can choose from by opening an existing or new publication and clicking Page Design > Fonts.

Font schemes make it easy to change all the fonts in a publication to give it a consistent, professional appearance. When you apply a font scheme, Publisher changes the styles in your publication to use one of the two fonts in the font scheme instead of the default fonts for those styles.
