Default font properties

I know it is probably something that is staring me right in the face but...
how do you set the default font properties for a project (or all projects to
be created) so that for all objects you pull on to the report they default to
this font property? Is there a RS setting or a Visual Studio setting
somewhere that nominates the default font (I'm particularly after font family
& size defaults). The reason I am asking is that I don't want to have to
reset object by object/ group of objects every report I create...
...hoping someone can save me some time...
THX.in visual studio... tools... options... then under Environment look at "fonts
and colors"
i think this is what you are looking for?

someone I work with to double check and changing these settings seems to just
change the environment as opposed to the defaults for the objects which is
what I am after... i.e. when I pull on a text box (or field) I want to be
able to preset the font size at which this initiates with...so I guess what
I am after is how to set the default properties for the various objects ...
any ideas..?
thx

Default Folder for Deploying Projects

I have a real (hopefully) easy question...
I'm wanting to deploy a Reporting Services project to a particular folder on
my virtual server. For example, whenever you deploy a project it goes
straight to the home directory and creates the MODELS and DATA SOURCES
folders.
I would like to deploy my project to a folder I created called REPORTING
COMPONENTS.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance for any help!!!Right mouse click, properties on the project. It brings up a property page
where you specify what you want it called on the server.

specifying any directory besides the default.
Here's where I want them to go:
http://10.90.160.13/ReportServerTest/Reporting Components:
Here's the error:
Client found response content type of '', but expected 'text/xml'.
The request failed with an empty response.

would look like http://10.90.160.13/ReportServer/Reporting Components
RS creates two websites: ReportServer and Reports. Reports is the portal.
ReportServer is the asp.net application. Did you not install in the default
area?
You can specify the final directory, you cannot specify anything but
ReportServer (or whatever RS website is called).

There are three properties: target folderr for models, data sources, and
URL. I was modifying the URL...no no no!!!
I modified the target folders and everything is peachy...
Thanks for your help Bruce...!
