   How can I change the actual font being used by the sub menus, without changing the main menu?

   Thnaks,

   Hello UpstreamSupport,

   Add this in Dashboard -> your theme -> General Settings -> Custom CSS,

   .jqueryslidemenu .sub-menu a { font-family: "Verdana" !important; }

   Elliot,

   It didn't work for me. I also tried it like this (the second of which "font-size" does work):

   .sub-menu a { font-family: "Verdana" !important; }

   .sub-menu a { font-size: 24px !important; }

   You currently have them converted with Cufon, you'll need to take that off in your skin.

   If you want just the top level items to use a Cufon font then download the WP Google Fonts plugin and add this in the plugin custom CSS,

   .jqueryslidemenu ul > li a { font-family: breakaway !important; }

   Using the custom CSS you gave me does change the font from what's specified for the menu. But it's not using the cufon font "breakaway" it's defaulting to another font. Arial is specified and it displaying Times or something like that.

   Thanks

   From your screenshot your using the WP Google Fonts plugin (Cufon is not a font it's just a technique) and it looks like you have the Piedra font being loaded. If you want breakaway then you'll need to load that one as well.
