RestChar (ctrl-space) does not work properly

Subject: RestChar (ctrl-space) does not work properly

My Normal style is set to TNR 12pt and there is no difference between my Normal or attached templates that I can find. Yet using ctrl-space I keep getting Arial 11pt!! The shortcut is set to ResetChar corrrectly. Where is this default character style coming from? Blank documents opened from normal dot behave correctly, however.
Thanks in advance

If you're getting Arial 11 in specific documents, then it would appear that
the default font for those documents (or specific styles used in them) has
been changed.

I aggree, but I cannot find where Arial 11 is configured. Not in Normal style for Normal.dot, Template.dot nor document.doc. That is the problem.

I took the plunge and used the Word help system for "set default font." Sure enough, new docs based on the same template use TNR 12 as default font, but the current document seems incurable. Strange!
