My company uses a default font size of 12 pt for documents. I find that word 2007 now automatically changes/inteprets a 12 pt default font size to 11 pt when in a table. This only occurs with the 12 pt size, but it is apparently true for all fonts. Is this suppose to be a bonus unlisted feature or is this a bug? I can manually adjust the size of the font larger, but if I clear formatting in a table (e.g., to errase underlining and bold type) I lose the font size and am required to reformat the text size. Manual adjustment is also a training problem for staff. Reapplying the style does not work, since the application sees 11 pt as correct in a table, even though the style is listed as having a default 12 pt size. Can this feature be removed or is their an option to disable it?
With your cursor in the table, select 'Design'. You will see that the table is assigned the default Table Style. Right click the table style and select 'Modify Table Style'. Modify it :) (Don't forget to check the New documents based on this template check box ... and save the template on closing Word ... or you will have to do it again for the next document) -- <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>><<> Tom Hinshaw wrote: > My company uses a default font size of 12 pt for documents.
