To change the default Word font, select the desired font in the font settings and set it to the default value. First, click the arrow in the lower right corner of the font of the "Start" tab or press Ctrl D to enter the settings window, select Chinese and Western fonts, font sizes and effects, then click "Set as default value", and select new documents applied to all Normal templates, and finally close the document and open the new document to check whether it is effective; if it does not take effect, it may be caused by the template corruption or permissions restricted.

Changing the default font of Word is actually very simple, but many people either can't find a place or the settings are not effective. The key is to modify it in the correct location and save it as default settings.

Find the font settings entry

After opening Word, don’t rush to type. First click the “Start” tab. There is a small arrow in the lower right corner of the “Font” area (called “Dialogue Launcher”). Click it to enter the font setting interface.
Or you can also use the shortcut key: Ctrl D to directly call up the font settings window.

Modify font style and size

In the Font Settings window, you can choose:

• Chinese fonts (such as Song font, Microsoft Yahei)
• Western fonts (such as Times New Roman, Arial)
• Font size (such as No. 12)
• Other effects, such as bold, italic, underline, etc.

After selecting, remember to click the "Set as Default" button. At this time, an option pops up: "Apply this change to:", with two options:

• Current Document
• All new documents based on Normal templates

If you want to use this font every time you create a new Word document in the future, choose the second one.

Check whether it is effective

Close the current document, reopen a new blank document, and see if the entered text is the font you just set. If not, the instructions may not be saved correctly as the default settings.
Sometimes the template file (Normal.dotm) is corrupted or other styles with higher priority may also cause the settings to not take effect.

Pay attention to small details

• If you use a unified configuration computer in your company or school, the permissions may be limited and the default template cannot be changed.
• Some plugins or third-party templates also affect the default fonts, you can try testing under a clean Normal template.
• If you only want to take effect on a certain document, you don't need to click "Set as default".

Basically all this is it, the operation is not complicated, but it is easy to ignore the step of "set as default value".
