You need to open your normal.dot template and make your changes there
(but you can't just click on it, that just gives you a new document).
I don't remember how Word2003 works, but I'd guess that using Ctrl-O
you should get a panel where "Template(s)" is an option somewhere.
Using that, open your template and change the settings in the Normal
style (which most other styles are based on).

Though it would be better not to mess with the Normal style; instead
you should create a new style with the parameters you want (if you
"base" it on Normal, you'll only have to change the things that need
changing), and then change the "based on" settings for the other
styles you use from Normal to the new one.

Note that changes made in a template don't filter back into existing
documents that were based on it. You'd have to copy the changed styles
into the old documents (using the Organizer).

Hi all,
As the title says i need to know how to change "default" Paragraph
Indentation and Alignment settings in word 2003. I know how it is done
in a document, need to know how to change the default settings of it. It
should be exactly what i set whenever i open a new document.
TIA.
