    Word bugged

    Locked

    by astonmc ·

    In MSWord while manipulating a document, something unusual happened.I was trying to format a certain document making the entire font size 11″. I selected the entire document, scolled to 11″ and got the fonts at that size.Now while doing other formatting to this document, some of the lines would suddenly return to 10″.So I tried a different approach.Went to format>font>and selected 11″ and accepted this as the default.Well that seemed to solve my problem, however something else came up. After trying to bold a certain word, it just returned to it’s normal status(i.e. unbolded).I tried bolding other words and it would bold them, but as soon as I click on another word, it would return to it’s normal status.Strange huh.
    Any thoughts??

      My guess is you’ve got some styles set for automatic update. When you changed a paragraph with one of those styles – every other paragraph in that document with that style gets updated automatically.

      To make *everything* 11 pt, start with changing the Normal style to 11 pt and change the rest of the styles as needed.

        I had already changed to the normal style before attempting to manipulate the document.
