[QUOTE="Daddy, post: 14112006"] Thanks very much for your help. So, if I understood you, many or most fonts in Word fall into one of two main categories: They are either 'body' fonts - that are used in the main body of a document - or 'heading' fonts - that are used in the headings of a document. Correct so far? So if I choose the +Body font (for example), that means I'm choosing whatever is considered to be the main body font for the particular style set I have selected. I would choose +Body instead of specifying a particular font (Arial, Calibri, etc.) for the body of my document. The idea being that a style set will have consistent look and feel. How am I doing so far? What messes me up is that in versions of Word prior to 2007, Body Text was the name of a font. I used to use Body Text for the body of my documents, and by basing other fonts in my document on Body Text, I was able to achieve a consistent look and feel. So how does +Body relate to the old 'Body Text'. Does +Body replace Body Text in Word 2007/2010? (As an aside, Microsoft is famous for using confusingly similar terminology, and Word 2007/2010 is a prize winner in that regard.) Daddy [/QUOTE]
