Hey Bob, There are a couple ways to do it but the simplest might be just click on the font size you want first, and then just start typing because the cursor will already be between the brackets where you need it to be to get the desired size.
Right. Otherwise you can type your stuff first and then highlight it with your mouse as if you were going to copy or cut it…..and then click on the "Normal" arrow in the tool bar and select "LARGE"
