如何更改乳胶中页码的格式/字体？

Question

I don't just mean how to switch to roman numerals, I want to change the font face and size. I'm currently using the article class, but I can't see any particular part of it responsible for the footer, so I wonder if this might not apply to a lot of classes.

Edit: I don't need to make a custom page layout or pagestyle, necessarily.

You could try the fancyhdr package.
