A margin is the space between the text and edge of your document. By default, a new document’s margins are
the set to normal, which means it has a one-inch space between the text and each edge. Depending on your

anu formatting changes you want such as font style, size or color alignment, line spacing or indentation
choose whether the style change applies to the current document or to all future documents. Word has
several style types:

Paragraph
Character
Linked
Table
List

6: FOR HEADINGS
Usually, the default is Calibri or Time New Roman, and the default font size is 11 or 12 point. To change the
default font attribute, find your version Microsoft Word on the list below and follow the instructions:

Always use the first three headings (1,2,3)

❖ H 1: Arial 14 pt. bold

❖ H2: Arial12 pt. bold, italic
❖ H3: Arial 10.5-11 pt. bold

It is the best practice for type word documents in font size14, and no smaller than font size 12, to assist
readers with visual impairments. Remember that no one font size will suit everyone. Make any desired
changes to the font style, font size & color heading in the formatting section. We can also apply bold, italic
and underline effects
