Let me choose to always open in print layout, not reading layout
Each new iteration of WORD makes it more cumbersome and less useful. I NEVER
want to see a document in "Reading Layout", yet each document opens that way automatically. I need the option of selecting which View I want a document to open in every time. More annoying, however, is the fact that everytime I change a font for a selected portion of a document, WORD automatically changes the entire document. I have spent hours selecting various options to prevent this from happening, but to no avail. Let me tell WORD what I want it to do instead of having it do things on its own. I have gone to Adobe products for most activities because WORD has become so frustrating to use. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

Turn off Reading Layout:
Go to Tools | Option | General Tab Uncheck "Allow starting in Reading Layout" Click OK Normal style set to automatically update: Go to Format | Styles and Formatting Right click NORMAL in the list Choose Modify Uncheck the Automatically update checkbox (bottom right) Click OK Do this for any other styles that you use regularly.
