How do you change the default font of a drawing text box?

[Elena]

When drawing a new text box, the default is Times New Roman. I cannot find
where to change that in my template.

THanks to all!

Make sure nothing has been selected, then just change the font to another
setting such as Arial. When you do this, everytime you add a new textbox, it
will follow the new setting.

Right-click and choose Set Autoshapes Default.

You may have to then create an autoshape with appropriate fills and lines
and right-click and set autoshape default again. But the textbox will still
maintain the default text settings you specified before doing the actual
autoshape.
