Changing font size and font name from the WYSIWYG editor is possible
since a long time, but is not enabled by default. How to enable it
depends on which version of XWiki Enterprise you are using. See
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/WysiwygEditor .
Starting with XWiki Enterprise 3.0 there is an administration section
for the WYSIWYG editor from where you can enable and configure the
font plugin. The steps are:

(1) Add "font" to the list of plugins
(2) Add "fontsize" and "fontname" to the tool bar
(3) Add/remove font names and font sizes as you wish

Note that if you want to have a consistent look across your wiki you
should check the custom styles feature. See the end of the WYSIWYG
editor administration section. It allows you to define common CSS
class names (style names like "important", "todo", etc.) that your
users can apply by selecting some text and choosing a style name from
a list box on the WYSIWYG editor tool bar. The steps to enable this
feature are:

(1) Add "style" to the list of plugins
(2) Add "styleNames" to the tool bar
(3) Register CSS class names at the end of the WYSIWYG editor
administration section.

Hope this helps,
Marius
