Here's a way to save the font to Normal.dot that won't affect anything else you've done to Normal.dot. (This assumes Word XP (2002) or an adjacent version. Word Vista (2007) probably has something similar.)



1.Click in the paragraph.



2.Click on the Format-%26gt;Styles and Formatting menu item.



3.In the bottom part of the sidebar that pops up, the style for your paragraph should have a bold box around it.



4.Hover the cursor over the style. A listbox arrow should appear. Click it.



5.Select Modify from the list box.



6.Click the Format button and select Font.



7.Perform the adjustments you want .



8.OK out of everything.



All paragraphs in the document with that style should adjust themselves.



Now, to carry this one step further and fix the style on the template your document is based on (probably Normal.dot, but not necessarily), do this:



1.Click the Tools-%26gt;Organizer menu item.



2.In the left-hand list box, find and click on the style you changed.



3.Click the Copy button between the two list boxes.



4.Click OK.



When you close your document, you may see a warning message asking if you want to save the changes to Normal.dot. This is an anti-virus measure, intended to alert you that something has changed in Normal.dot. In this case, you made the change, so you want to accept it.



That should do it.

Go into a blank Word Document. Dont type anything but change the fonts and styles to the way you want them. Go to File Save As and change it to normal.dot. This will change the default fonts and styles to everything you want. Make sure you save it to wherever your current normal.dot is located. Usually inside Program Files\Microsoft Office\
Click on file, page setup. You should be able to change it in there.
