Is there any way to change the default font (Portable User Interface) used by Silverlight to a custom font without specifying a style for every single UI element? I want to avoid having to explicitly set a style or bind the FontFamily it to a static resource.

I suppose I can use implicit styles, but then I have to do it for EVERY UI control type: Button, TextBlock, TextBox, etc, etc…

I wish I could just add this to my Style Dictionary (but of course it’s not allowed):

<FontFamily >"TCCEB.TTF#Tw Cen MT"</FontFamily>

    If you wrap your entire application with a ContentControl and specify its FontFamily in there, as long as you don’t specify the FontFamily in any of your child controls, the font should flow down to all of them.
