What option in the Style Modify dialog sets the style as default for new documents?

• A. Change font in the Status Bar
• B. Create a new template and save
• C. Use Page Setup
• D. Modify the style and check 'New documents based on this template'

Answer: (D)

Styles and templates determine what formatting appears by default in new documents. When you modify a style and check the option “New documents based on this template,” you’re saving that change back to the template, so every new document created from that template uses the updated style automatically. This is why that choice is the best answer—it makes the style the default for future documents. The other options don’t establish a default: changing a font in the status bar is just a temporary, in-session change; creating a new template by itself doesn’t set it as the default template for new documents; and Page Setup adjusts layout, not styles.
