The information on this page is based on HTML version 4.01 (which is the current version of HTML). The next version, HTML 5, is currently being written. Here's a list of HTML 5 tags.

The HTML basefont tag is used to specify a base font for the document to use.

The HTML basefont tag is deprecated in HTML 4.01 and not supported in HTML 5.

To set font properties, you should use the CSS font property instead.
