Set the default font
When you set a default font, every new document you open will use the font settings that you selected and set
as the default. The default font applies to new documents that are based on the active template, usually
Normal.dotm. You can create different templates to use different default font settings.
NOTE In Word, you can also quickly and easily format an entire document to give it a professional and
modern look by applying a document theme. A document theme is a set of formatting choices that can include
a color scheme (a set of colors), a font scheme (a set of heading and body text fonts), and an effects scheme
(a set of lines and fill effects).
Set the default font
Start with a blank document, or if your document already contains text that is formatted with the properties that
you want to use, select that text.
