Again, the following codes:

As mentioned numerous times in this Forum and also there is a FAQ that discusses how to edit the category layout in the Resource Center....

You edit the HTML codes in the sub site_html_print_cat routine in the site_html_templates.pl file. Look for the HTML font codes near $category_clean.
