New Microsoft Office Default Font and Office Theme Coming Soon
Microsoft is rolling out a new default font and new default theme colors across all Office products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook). After 15 years, the current default font – Calibri will be replaced by a new default font called Aptos. In addition to the font change, Microsoft is also modernizing the color palette for accessibility. Users will start noticing these changes in the coming weeks.
