Word doc. font

Try this :

Open Microsoft Word

Click Font
Select the Font and Sizes you would like.
Click the Default button.
This is now the default font for all new documents.

It is possible there is an issue with your Normal.dot file that is causing this headache. I'd delete it and let Office create a new one. Then go through the steps of setting your default font.On the Format menu, click Font. Select the options you want to apply to the default font. Click Default.

Good luck...hope this helps!

Why are you accessing Word Pad?
The word Processor in Microsoft Works suite is the same as the Word Processor for Microsoft Office. Open up main Word Document - Start>Run
WinWord /A & try the previous info.
