Why is Times New Roman the only suggested font?
Myself I detest TNR, I go into Microsoft office and always immediately
change it to Arial or something else. I think that there sould be an option
that you can change the default font on your computer, just like the fact you
can change the font on your microsoft outlook. It should be suggested/ an
option to go into your control panel and right click on a font in which you
want and have an option for "default" appose to only being able to use Times
New Roman.
Let me know what you think or if there are options out there instead of
contantly changing the font EVERYTIME you open up MS Word or Excel. I work
in a professional business setting and the programs are used alot so it tends
to be kind of monotinous to change it all the time. The drop down option is
great in case you want to change a line/ word or paragraph thru out the
document.

Feel free to email me back at (e-mail address removed)

Thanks

There are easy ways in most programs, including Word and Excel, to
change the default font. They involve setting the new font and then
creating a new template file.

This post has arrived in the FrontPage newsgroup, not the Word newsgroup as
you may have expected. There's a reason Times New Roman is the primary font,
it's everywhere. Most people like Serif fonts better, but it doesn't always
have the same classic, professional look that a lot of companies wish.

That being said, you could always simply change the Normal.Dot template that
Word uses. Then alter the Normal style to be whatever you want. Of course,
if you use other templates Word will do whatever their Normal style says.
