Another alternative might be for you to contact a Microsoft Word forum, which some Microsoft MVP's routinely monitor for user problems, which they often may address or fix. Likewise, you could do a google search for something like, unable get desired font point size Microsoft Word . Look in the results you get, and refine the search phrase (if required).

Then back up that template file, by copying/pasting it to soemwhere else: After that, as a first step, do as instructed before. the template file may in anmy case be corrupted.

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 ...

Delete all instances of your normal.dot file. 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.

I am saying YES both times and I can change it to 10, 11 and 14, but
not 12  for some strange reason. Makes no sense. Any other way I can
attempt  to make  this change, even with sighted assistance and a
mouse? I truly need to  make  this change since my book may be in 12
rather than 14 point font and  the  formatting must be perfect.
Thank you very much for all help.

so your saying, after entering on the default button, and saying yes
to save changes, when you completely close word, again, are you saying
yes to save changes?
if not, this is why it's not changing.

David, I am using Win 7, JAWS 12 and Word 2010. I have only the option
that is close to what you have, all documents based on the normal
template.
That
is checked and yet it will not change the font to 12, only 10, 11 or
14.
Have no idea why. Do you think there is any other way I can try to
change this permanently, since that method does not work for some
unknown reason??
Thank you very much.

I have tried every method I know to change the font size in Word 2010.
I use
JAWS 12. I need 12-point. It was originally 14 and then when I changed it to 12, it now reads 10-point which is not acceptable. I have tried
to adjust the setting to 14 to try to get it to stick and stop at
12-point. No luck. I cannot figure out how to make this a permanent
template with 12-point font which is becoming maddening.

Any help to resolve this issue will be tremendously appreciated.
