Word 2016 features a single location where all your font-formatting dreams can come true. It’s the neatly organized Font dialog box, shown in the following figure.

To summon the Font dialog box, obey these steps:

1. Click the Home tab.

2. In the Fonts group, click the dialog box launcher button.

   The button is found in the lower-right corner of the Font group.

   Use the Dialog box launcher to open the Font dialog box.

The Font dialog box contains all the commands for formatting text, including quite a few that didn’t find their way into the Font group on the Ribbon. As with all text formatting, the commands you choose in the Font dialog box affect any new text you type or any selected text in your document.

When you’ve finished setting up your font stuff, click the OK button. Or click Cancel if you’re just visiting.

• Use the Ctrl+D keyboard shortcut to quickly summon the Font dialog box.

  The best benefit of the Font dialog box is its Preview window, at the bottom. This window shows you exactly how your choices affect text in your document.

• The Font names +Body and +Heading refer to the fonts selected by the current document theme. This is done so that you can use Word’s theme commands to quickly change body and heading fonts for an entire document all at one time.

• Click the Font dialog box’s Text Effects button to access interesting text attributes such as Shadow, Outline, Emboss, and Engrave.

• The Font dialog box’s Advanced tab hosts options for changing the size and position of text on a line.

  The Set as Default button in the Font dialog box is used to change the font that Word uses for a new document. If you prefer to use a specific font for all your documents, choose the font (plus other text attributes) in the Font dialog box, and then click the Set as Default button. In the dialog box that appears, choose the option All Documents Based on the Normal Template, and then click the OK button. Afterward, all documents start with the font options you selected.

A dialog box (also spelled dialogue box, also called a dialog) is a common type of window in the GUI of an operating system. It displays information, and asks a user for input.

For example, when you are using a program and you want to open a file, you interact with the 'File Open' dialog box. In Microsoft Windows, when you right-click a file and choose Properties, you are presented with the Properties dialog box.

You can press the Esc key to cancel or close a dialog box.

If the dialog box was created by an application, it is called a child window of the parent application.

Modal and modeless dialogs

A modal dialog temporarily locks you out of the rest of an application until it's closed. While a modal dialog box is open, it's always active and prevents any other dialog boxes or windows from being opened until it is closed.

A modeless dialog allows you to use the rest of the application while it is open. It can be hidden by other application windows.

A document-modal dialog is used in modern versions of macOS X, and in some applications such as Opera. Instead of appearing in its own window, the dialog is presented as a 'sheet' attached to the window. While it is open, a document-modal dialog locks the user out of the parent document window, but other document windows in the application can still be used. An example of a document-modal dialog is the 'Save As' dialog in OS X's TextEdit application, shown below.
