Word template being reset by other PC

J

Jan C

I'm writing documents on my home PC for a corporate
project. My Normal style, on which every other font is
based, is Arial 11pt. When I take the document (on CD or
email) to the company and open it in their Word,(same
version as mine), their Normal style of Times Roman 12pt
takes precedence, and my whole document gets reformatted
accordingly -- creating quite a mess. Each time, I have
to redefine Normal on the corporate PC. I want to be able
to email them documents that open properly. I don't have
the "automatically update" box checked in my document,
and I have added the Normal style to my template before
saving. What can I do to make my formatting stick when
it's opened elsewhere?

Thanks
