Font type

• Open a document called Text formatting.

• By default Microsoft Word 2010 uses a font called Calibri. 

• Make sure that the Home tab is displayed.

• Select the paragraph starting with the text FONT TYPE within your document (by quickly clicking three times within the paragraph) and experiment with applying different font types.  To do this, make sure that the Home tab is selected, then click on the down arrow, to the right of the text within the Font control.
  
  
  

• You will be able to select a different font from the drop down list supplied.
  
  
  

• Experiment with formatting your paragraphs using different fonts.  You can also experiment with applying different font types to individual words or sentences.
  
  TIP: This is just an exercise.  In real life do not have lots of different fonts all mixed up within a document.  It looks cheap and conveys a very bad visual impression!
