    Regarding the formatting issues you mention, a good start is to set the default text properties that you want. If you are running Word for Windows, use the Set as Default button in the Font (Ctrl+D) dialog box and also in the Paragraph dialog box. 

     

    The example below shows the Paragraph dialog box. To display it, click the dialog launcher button (= the little arrow) on the bottom right of the Paragraph group on the Home tab.

        Many details are different in Word for Mac. I don't think there are any dialog launcher icons, for one thing.

         

        Maybe, on the main menu bar, you have Format > Font and/or Format > Paragraph?

         

        In the Word for Mac Font and Paragraph dialog boxes, do you see the option Set as Default?
