Default Font

[Bob Day]

I would like to change the default font when you open a document to Arial
12. I though I would simply edit normal.dot, but cannot find it.

How do I change the default font when a new document is created?

Thanks!

Bob,

Format>Font. Choose Arial and then click the default button in the bottom
left corner.

See: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customization/DefParaFont.htm

for an explanation of the difference between the default font and default
paragraph font.
