Change default font?
Not sure to understand your comment about normal.dot...
Anyway, give a look to this article: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Change-the-default-font-2f50603b-9886-47e4-a483-48ac5ab80163
Hope it helps...
That's the standard approach for one user. It's been like that for a long time. But does not really help when there are 2,500 users that I need to do it for.
AFAIK, the default font is stored in normal.dotm. BTW, sharing normal.dotm among multiple users is not supported (https://support.microsoft.com/en-hk/help/811468/you-cannot-share-the-normal.dot-file-among-multiple-users-in-word).
You could then write a login script to download normal.dotm form a network share, but that would overwrite also other user personalizations, which I assume is something you don't want to do.
IMHO the best solution could be to create a shared template with all the settings you need, including the default font, and ask the users to use it.
Just my two cents...
