font-family default?

If you don't specify a font-family, what is the
default font that is used? I have searched around the
site and it doesn't appear to be listed anywhere that
i can see.

I specify in certain areas what font to use, but
nothing for the overall pdf.

What about this though:

        <font metrics-file="/tmp/fonts/Arialn.xml" kerning="yes"
embed-file="/tmp/fonts/Arialn.ttf">
                <font-triplet name="ArialNarrow" style="normal"
weight="normal"/>
                <font-triplet name="any" style="normal"
weight="normal"/>
        </font>

If I don't have the third line, then fop throws an exception that no
default font is defined. I was under the impression that I define a
default font this way.

The overall default is the generic family "sans-serif".
For PDF, that's probably Helvetica. The default size is 12pt.
