Default - Notice the Set As Default button in the lower left-hand corner? That button enables you to change the default font type/size/style for the document template being used.Effects - Some of these special character effects are available via keyboard commands (such as CNTRL-= for subscript or CTRL-SHIFT-= for superscript), but this tends to be the preferred way to make formatting changes such as strikethrough and small caps.

Underline Style/Color - Unlike the Underline button (or CTRL-U on the keyboard), these dropdowns will enable you to choose several underline styles, such as double underline, underline words only (not spaces), dashed, dotted, or wavy underlines, as well as choose another color for the underlining.Font Color - Again, this is also accessible via Microsoft Word's standard Formatting toolbar (look for the button with a capital A underlined in red).Font/Font Style/Size - While it's easier to change fonts directly on the Formatting toolbar dropdown, this method allows you to visually "test" several fonts before committing with the OK button (see the preview screen at the bottom of the box?).For the purposes of this post, let's go through what's available on the Font tab within Microsoft Word.
