- Sample MLA formatted template for you to use in Microsoft Word, last updated January 20, 2026. If you open this document in a version of Microsoft Word downloaded on your computer (not the web version of Word, not Pages, not Google Docs), the basic formatting—margins, typeface, line spacing, etc.—will already be set up correctly. It is crucial that you follow the conventions of style and formatting, and this document will put you in a strong position to make sure your paper is 12pt Times New Roman, double spaced, 24 lines per page, with margins that print at 1″. You should not change the settings unless you know what you are doing and have good reason to do so. Microsoft Word is available to UNM students at no additional cost through the university’s Microsoft 365 subscription.
