Now right-click the name of the Footnote Text style and click Modify. Your Styles pane will now show a lot longer list of styles. You may also want to change the sort order from As recommended to Alphabetical. Change the Select styles to show dropdown from Recommended to All styles.
The Styles Pane Options dialog box will be displayed. If you cannot see Footnote Text in the list of styles, click the Options link in the bottom right corner of the pane. To set the default font size for footnote text, on the Home ribbon, in the Styles group, there is a small square button in the bottom right corner below the Change Styles button – the dialog box launcher.Ĭlick that button, or press its shortcut combination Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S. I was asked by a client how she could change the default font size of her footnotes.
