How do I increase font size in word 2003?
If you look at the ribbon near the top of the screen, there is usually a
slot that indicates the name of the font in use (Times New Roman or Arial, &c). To the right, there is usually a slot to the right with a numeral indicating the font point size currently in use. Mouse click on that numeral and type in the size you want. Press enter. OR mouse click on the small arrowhead to the right and select the size you want from the list.

I assume you already know how to increase the font size of any selected text, and what you want is to increase the _default_ size in new documents. To do that, you need to change the size of the Normal style in the Normal.dot template. (Yes, I know that's a lot of "Normals", but I didn't choose the names.) You may also have to change some other styles in that template, as well as other templates you may use. See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Custom...alTemplate.htm for instructions on how to do that. You may also want to look at http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Genera...iewAndZoom.htm, although that changes only the on-screen display and not the printing size. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
