When I hit 'enter' a few times in a Word document, the font from the

This is probably a result of an AutoFormat As You Type setting. If you type
a short line of text and then hit Enter twice, Word automatically applies a
built-in heading style to that text, which is usually bold and larger than
body text.
To stop this, go to Tools AutoCorrect Options AutoFormat As You Type
(note: not the similar "AutoFormat" tab) and uncheck the box for "Built-in
Heading styles".
You should probably uncheck other boxes in that dialog. See
http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/Format...AutoFormat.htm for advice.
Lastly, get out of the habit of hitting Enter more than once to make space.
If you use styles properly, with the Space Before and Space After settings,
you need only one Enter between paragraphs.
