In Microsoft Word, you can use keyboard shortcuts to quickly adjust the font size of your selected text. Here's how:
Increase Font Size:
- Highlight the text you want to enlarge.
- Press and hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard.
- While holding Ctrl, press the right bracket key (]).
Decrease Font Size:
- Highlight the text you want to make smaller.
- Press and hold the Ctrl key on your keyboard.
- While holding Ctrl, press the left bracket key ([).
Key Points:
- These shortcuts work in Microsoft Word versions 2010 through 2019.
- Make sure you hold the Ctrl key throughout - it's not a single keypress but a combination.
- Each time you press the bracket key, the font size changes by one point.
