How to open a new doc with the font I want?
When I open Word 2007 it offers me a Document1 with font MS Mincho size 10.5.
How can I get the initial blank offering to already be set to, say, Verdana 12? |

How to open a new doc with the font I want?
Several ways... In the Home tab, click on the Font launcher (lower right
corner of the Font section in the ribbon). There, set the font & size as desired, then click Default... Or... press Ctrl+Shift+Alt+S to display the Styles pane. At the bottom, click the Manage Styles tool; click the Set Defaults tab. Click "New documents based on this template", set the font & size as desired, and click OK. Note that the latter approach provides access to setting other defaults, as well.

How to open a new doc with the font I want?
With either of the ways, I end up with the Normal in this image: http://www.rcblue.com/Misc/Word_Ribbon_Normal_is_MS_Gothic_12.png So I was able to change the font size to 12, but couldn't set Verdana. And now Style 1, 2, 3, 4, and V12 all give me Verdana 12. (See http://www.rcblue.com/Misc/Word_Ribbon_Style1_is_Verdana_12.png.) If I can't change Normal to exactly what I want, I can live with V12. But how to delete the identical Styles 1, 2, 3, and 4? I have the Language Pack - Japanese ($25 from MS). Is that why Nomal inisists on giving me an Asian font by default -- and a default that seemingly can't be changed? "Herb Tyson [MVP]" wrote: Several ways...
