Customize Comment Text in Word

I find that the default settings for comments in Word 2002 documents are just a little too small. But changing the size and font is easy. You can use standard formatting commands to modify the text in comment balloons as you type. Here's how:



1.            On the Format menu, click Styles and Formatting, which will open the Styles and Formatting task pane in the right margin.

2.            In the task pane, under Pick formatting to apply, make sure the Comment Text entry is visible. If it is, go to step 3; if it is not, do the following:

a.                   On the Show drop-down menu, click Custom.

b.                   In the Format Settings dialog box, under Styles to be visible, click Comment Text, and then click OK.

3.            Under Pick formatting to apply, right-click the Comment Text entry, and then click Modify.

4.            Select any options you want.

5.            To see more options, click Format, and then click the attribute that you want to change.

6.            Click OK after you've changed each attribute.

7.            Repeat steps 5 and 6 for any additional attributes you want to change.
