Subject: MS Word 4.0: How to change the default font

My Mom is writing a book on her Mac (honest!) and she would like to change
the default font (New York, I think) to something else.  I know that with
different style sheets you can do whatever you want, but she is not
particularly sophisticated (and she lives a thousand miles away, so the
phone bills could get hefty) with computers.  She just wants it to open up
in a font she prefers (Monaco believe it or not).

So.  The question is:  How does one change the default font in Word 4.0?

The documentation is typical Microsoft and so far as I can tell, if it can
be done at all, it isn't documented.  Is there anyone on the net who can
help?  Email would be appreciated.
