I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess this is a non-fiction book.:p

If so, do some research into the publisher(s) most likely to publish your work. They will have submission requirements and possibly detail on font requirements etc. If they're not specific then something like Arial or Times New Roman is a safe bet. Double space your work and size 12 would be safe.

MS Word is more than you'll need. Inserting page numbers is easy, and you can look up help and it'll show you.

Good luck
