Excel uses the very nice Calibri font by default in Windows, but if you’d like to use a different font or change the default size, you can easily adjust the setting in the Excel options screen.
Start by clickingĀ the āFileā tab.
On the backstage screen, click āOptionsā in the list of items on the left.
Make sure the General screen is active. Then, select the font you want as the default from the āUse this as the default fontā drop-down list.
To select a different font size as the default size, select a size from the āFont sizeā drop-down list.
Click āOKā to accept the changes and close the Excel Options dialog box.
You must exit Excel and restart it for the changes to take effect. Click āOKā on the following dialog box that displays and then close and reopen Excel.
Now, youāll see your chosen font and size as the defaults for all cells on all worksheets in any new workbooks you create in Excel.
You can always change the font using the Home tab on the ribbon as well, but it’s only for the selected cells on the current worksheet.
