calc does not have a User select-able default (font/font-style/font-size) add default font option for calc: for new files and/or new sheets Thanks, Tracey the default font option does NOT appear until a writer document is opened and only for writer.
What about setting the Default Style as you want it, including the Font characteristics? Then you save that Default style in your Default template, so you can use it every time you start a new spreadsheet file. Does that solve the matter?
It might work! I'll have to check it out. Thanks, Tracey I have not used templates before.

This is already tracked in bug 33743, although there is support for doing quite the opposite and removing any option to set a default font per component (and relying entirely on templates instead, as suggested by ady). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 33743 ***
