At some point in the last couple of days, the default +body/+headings font on my copy of Office 365 changed to the Aptos font. I honestly find it a bit hard to read, and I'd rather choose my default body font from a choice of whatever fonts I have installed. Failing that, I'd take Calibri again. The Aptos font reminds me a lot of
Since this affects all Office products, I can't say go into Outlook and change the stationery fonts; this doesn't impact the Reading Pane. It also wouldn't impact say Word, where I'd have to come up with my own document template to override the change. It doesn't seem to be a registry edit or template file edit, either. Is there a spot that the Aptos font can be changed?

Thank you for all these.
However is it possible to change the font back to calibri in Access?
Aptos just doesn't work - it makes everything way harder to read.

For Microsoft Access, you had better ask in the Access forum at https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/msoffice_access?sort=LastReplyDate&dir=Desc&tab=All.
If they would make this font available to the system that would be great. Problem is that people convert documents to other formats that also need this font. It really is 100% useless if I can't use it in other apps.
Another gripe: Other non-MS programs don't recognize the font at all (hello, Adobe Acrobat), and thus default to their take on a compatible font, which makes editing a PDF a veritable nightmare -- or in fact impossible.
According to Microsoft, it will be possible to download Aptos later (unclear when), and then it will work in all programs. See https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/new-office-theme-e7bbfe02-d1fb-4c4d-b3b7-6a47f0cefd3f.
