Setting the default font for Sketch Entity Text on a part

Setting the default font for Sketch Entity Text on a part

Setting the default font for Sketch Entity Text on a part

(OP)
I can't figure out how to set a default font for the Tools / Sketch Entity / Text feature on a part.  Currently I need to uncheck the "Use document font" in the Sketch Text property manager, then choose the font size, height, etc. that I need.  This is getting tedious when I have dozens of text sketches to include.  Basically I'm asking, how do you set the default "document font" for text sketch entities? I've tried looking in the Tools / Options but can't find what I need.  Thanks, ~Tina

Has anyone found this in the help?  Well I found out how to do this in case anyone has the same question. It will also be part of the archives.  
To set the default font of the Sketch Entity / Tool feature, go to Tools / Options / Document Properties / Annotations / Text / Font and set it there.  Hope this helps others out there.   ~Tina
