In late April, Microsoft announced that Calibri will no longer be the default font for Microsoft Office sometime in the near future. The company is currently asking people to help select its successor from a collection of five specially commissioned new fonts: Bierstadt, Grandview, Seaford, Skeena, and Tenorite. Like Calibri, they’re all sans serif.
As Millennials (and older generations) no doubt remember, this isn’t the first font overhaul for the tech giant; Calibri only arrived on the scene in 2007. Before that, Times New Roman was the norm, and teachers were known to knock a few points off a research paper if you had the audacity to change it.

Say it ain’t so, Calibri. I’ve always favoured Microsoft’s default Word font much more so than Times New Roman, at least, which Microsoft replaced with Calibri way back in Office 2007. And while Microsoft is finally looking to shake things up again with a new default font, you don’t have to follow the whims of Redmond. You can set any font you want as Word’s default. (Calibri forever.)
