Setup a Default Template for New Docs in Word

In this Microsoft Word tutorial, I will teach you how to set up a default template so that when you create a new Word document, it will automatically be set to whatever settings you prefer, including font size, margins, and so on. I'll show you how to set up a normal.dotm file. This way, you don't have to keep making changes every time you create a new document.

Ellen from Gulf Shores, Alabama (a Platinum Member) asks: Microsoft just updated Office and they set the default font to this new Aptos, which I don't like. How can I get back Calibri without having to change it for every new document I create? This is annoying. Help.
