Using the Base Styles tab you can set font and border options for all elements of the Excel 2007 / ODS sheet (HEADER, CAPTION, DATA, FOOTER). You can customize style options, such as font and size, background and foreground colors, text alignment, etc. for each of them by clicking the corresponding item in the list and setting the options in the right-side panel.

 

If necessary, you can also specify the sheet name for the target Excel 2007 / ODS file.

 

Use the Font and Size drop-down lists to select the font and size to be applied to the text.
