Numbered lists changing back to normal template font

[nwtom]

I have a very basic email template in Word 2007. When adding a numbered list
or bullets to the body of the mail the font changes from the font I set for
the template back to Calibri 11 which I guess would be the "Normal" template
font. How do I have the template use the font (Times New Roman 12) that I
set for the body of the email?

Files aren't set for templates, but for styles within the template.

If your numbered list or bullet styles are "based on" Normal, then
they'll use its font; if you want them to have some other font, just
change them for those styles in the template.

How did you apply the font changes? If you click the numbering icon the
numbering should merely apply the numbering to the underlying style. If you
used a list numbered style then the format will be that of the list numbered
style.

Hello Graham,

Thanks for responding to this post.

I am having the same problem. I think it's a bug. When changing text to a
bulleted list, the text auto-formats to a text other than what has been set
as the default text for the template. I can find no specfiic setting to
adjust the font for a numbered list.

Any ideas?

Change the settings of the List Bullet style which is being applied because
of your 'autoformat as you type' settings. Or change the autoformat as you
type settings (Word 2007 - Word Options > Proofing > Autocorrect Options >
Autoformat as you type). Uncheck the 5 'apply as you type options' to regain
control.
