Select the font, style, and color you would like to use as the default.
Click the Format menu (Word 2007and newer – on the Home tab, click the Font Dialog Box Launcher).
Just follow these easy steps to change your default font. If you have a certain font you like to use for all your Word documents there is a way to make Word use that font by default every time you start a new document. Microsoft Office programs such as Word tend to use rather boring fonts as their defaults but fortunately this can be changed so you don’t have to do it manually each time you create a document. If it’s quality software then it will let you change these defaults so you can customize the software to your liking. The company liked Calibri enough to make it the default for Windows Vista in 2007.Most software comes with defaults for things such as fonts, page layout, save location and so on. That changed in 2000 with Microsoft’s new ClearType technology, which optimized the resolution on LCD screens and made fonts like de Groot’s easier to read. “I had some sketches already, so I adapted those and added these rounded corners to get some design feeling in it.” For a long time, computer displays lacked the pixel density to faithfully render all fonts rounded corners appeared not as an arch but a stair. “I designed it in quite a hurry,” he says. “It’s a relief,” he says.ĭe Groot created Calibri in the early 2000s, as part of a collection of fonts for enhanced screen reading. It’s the end of an era, but Calibri’s designer, Lucas de Groot, has no qualms about letting his typeface rest for a bit. Actually, five of them: Microsoft announced that it plans to replace Calibri as the default font with one of five new typefaces it released this week. But now there’s a new sans serif in town. It has appeared countless times in unformatted Word documents, PowerPoint presentations, and Excel spreadsheets, a typographical reprieve for the decision-paralyzed. For almost 15 years, Calibri has reigned as the default and therefore dominant font choice for Microsoft systems.
