Default Default settings don't stay when default language changes

Because of my line of work, I have to switch between Arabic and English a lot. I have no problem doing that.



Additionally, I get annoyed with Calibri-11 setting (as most papers in the real world use Times New Roman 12) so I change the default settings accordingly for new documents. I have no problem with this either.

My problem is that whenever I change the default language, it reverts back to Calibri-11 for new documents. Even if I set the default for both Arabic and English, it still doesn't remember anything when I switch back again. Please help.

Default

Changing the default language does reset the Normal template to factory defaults.

You will have to set this up in a different way, for example by using a separate template for Arabic text.
