Within your word 2008 document



Go under View on the menu bar

Select: Toolbars and under Toolbars, select Standard and Formating

On the menu under Edit, choose Select All

On Formatting toolbar that is now displayed, select whatever font and font size you wish.



On the formatting toolbar, extreme left side, you can usually choose ';Normal'; and it gives you 12 font in some font Microsoft has chosen. You can change ';Normal'; to whatever font and size etc that you like.
