From: Todd on 15 Mar 2010 10:57 I use Word 2007 to type proposals. I will open up a saved proposal from my folder, delete its contents, do a "Save As", and begin a new proposal. The proposal that I open has "Times New Roman" font (which I want). However, when I select all and delete an old proposal, it defaults to "Rockwell". How can I make the font default to "Times New Roman"? Thanks!
From: Luc on 15 Mar 2010 11:27 Todd, Have you tried adapting the normal style? Activate the styles task pane by clicking on the little arrow in corner of the styles group on the home tab, click on the listarrow next to your normal style, click change, set your font there. Save your proposal. Does it work now? Luc Sanders MVP - PowerPoint "Todd" wrote: > I use Word 2007 to type proposals.

From: Peter T. Daniels on 16 Mar 2010 19:15 Don't do it by reusing an old document. Instead, make a template with all the formatting exactly as you want it, and create each new proposal as a New document based on that template.

You mean "create each new proposal as a New "template", do you not?

No, since every proposal is the same as all the others, only the content changes, that's _exactly_ what templates are used for.
