Re: [JAWS-Users] Irregular text sizes in Word
As I understand you don’t want to normalize the format, but only change the font size at a relative level, that is, a certain number of points compared to the current different size of each document zone. To do this, select all the document (or the part you're interested in) and use the Enlarge Font or Shrink Font buttons, located in the Font group of the Home tab on the ribbon. There are keyboard shortcuts for this. If I'm not wrong, shortcuts in English Word are CTRL+COMMA and CTRL+PERIOD, but check it first by looking at the buttons, as these shortcuts are different in Spanish word and I may be wrong about the English shortcut, since in Spanish these are CTRL+LESS and CTRL+GREATTER. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of jyandt.mar...@comcast.net Sent: Thursday, August 3, 2017 11:43 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Irregular text sizes in Word Morning all. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to change the font size in Word 2013, if the original text is not uniform i.e., some of the text is a different size than other parts of text? I want to enlarge text, and reduce text sizes in a word document as a whole document; and not have to go through the document and change the sizes one part at a time. I hope this makes sense.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Irregular text sizes in Word
I'll tell you what I do in Word 2010 because it probably still works in 2013. Select the entire document with control-a. Bring up the font dialog with either control-shift-f or control-d. Tab until you hear a font size. Arrow up or down until you find the size you want.
