This is not so easy. I have specific margins which are not easy for me to set, since I don't know their exact settings and everything else in the template. I would hate to mess that all up. There must be some other alternative because you said that I should be able to adjust the font size, after this is done. It is not a given, however. I will continue to hold out and hopefully find some other solution so as not to totally disassemble all settings on the word 2010 template. Thanks though ...

Afterwards when you open a new document in Word, it will create a new normal.dotx template. Then you can try adjusting the font size there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Liuda" <balciu...@gmail.com> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2014 3:33 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Font will not permanently change in Word 2010 >I am saying YES both times and I can change it to 10, 11 and 14, but >not 12 for some strange reason.
