Cy,
You are right about needing to select the text you want to change, but if you use the Shortcut key combinations that have been mentioned, the correct ones, you won't have to deal with the Font dialog at all.

Hi All,
Well, I have goofed around with this font change ideas and, they do seem to
work - if - you have selected what it is you want to change.
If you use the cntrl+A then the entire document will be changed and if you
use the shift+down arrow only the selected line will change.
You still wind up in the font dialog and have to either tab up about 3 or so
times or down about a mile to hit "OK" in order for the change to take
effect.

Ron,

The keystrokes for changing the point size of the font is control, shift,
and the letter P.

Ron,

For MS-Word, Ctrl+Shift+F brings up the font dialog. This is the way I do
it.

I vaguely recall that there are some other keystrokes to increase or
decrease the font size on-the-fly, but can't remember them because either
they really don't exists, or because I've never used them.

Maybe someone else will know.

Dave

Hi all.



Does anyone know an easy way to change the font size to say 11, and
the Font itself to Arial?



I need to do this for quite a long document which I will be adding
to regularly.  I am wondering also once I have changed it, how I might
check
it is still the same at the end or throughout the document?



I'm using Jaws with Vista home.



Be grateful for any help.j



Ron
