existing reports as xml, then use SelectNodeList to get all the <FontFamily>
nodes.
Then foreach node in the node list, change the InnerText to the new font &
republish the report

Thank you for your reaction. For your solution I have to write code ? I did
find the GetReportDefinition but not the SelectNodeList. Can you explain more
how to do this ? .
I did find out that it is possible to use Edit -> Find and Replace ->
Replace in Files. This is not perfect but it helps to avoid changing every
item. Then you can change all reports in the project to the font-family arial
for example.

Yes, you will have to write code. SelectNodeList is in the System.Xml.XPath
namespace.
However, if you only want to change the font once, then Find/Replace might
be easier. I was thinking that you may need to change the font regularly.
