I have thoroughly researched many places on how to change and set the default setting in Word. It is presently defaulted to Calibri, font size 11.



1. I have tried the simple clicking of the "font arrow" (ctrl +d), changed the font and size, clicked "default" and OK. Didn't work.

2. I tried changing the "styles". (ctrl+alt+shift+s). I right clicked normal/modify, changed the formatting and size and chose "new documents based on this template, clicked OK. As long as I don't close the blank sheet, and open other new blank sheets, my change remains. I soon as I close everything and open again, I am back to the old Calibri/11 which is way too small for me.

I do have "normal.dotm" if that helps any.

My computer is a new HP h9-1180, a few months old, Win7 and MS Office was installed under program files (x86).

Some of the above suggestions have helped others but I still have no solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
