In the new version of office, the default font in word has been changed. Here is how to change the default font to whatever you wish.

What the heck is Calibri (Body)? You can change your default font for Microsoft Word if you wish.

1. Open Windows Word 2007
2. Make sure you have the Home tab selected
3. Open the font dialog box as seen on this picture

4. Once the font dialog opens, change the default properties you wish. Press the Default button when you are done.
