Shortcut Key - Font, font size
Jeff So
particular font (for example Times New Roman), but what if I wanted to
change a selection of text to a particular size using only one shortcut key?
Is there any way to assign one shortcut key that will change text to size 12
Times New Roman? Thanks.

shortcut key to apply the default paragraph font.
Otherwise, the following simple macro will work:
-------------------------
Sub Macro1()
With Selection.Font
.Size = 12
End With
End Sub
-------------------------

There are a couple of ways to do this, the most flexible would be
creating a Style. Use Format/Style and create a new style with the
font and font size that you want. You'll see the "Shortcut Key" there
so you can assign one to the style and check the box "Add to template"
to make it available to your new docs. If you ever wish to modify the
font or font size, just modify the style.
As another suggestion, you may just opt to use these shortcuts for
increasing and decreasing the font size: <Ctrl ] > to increase <Ctrl
[ > to decrease.

Hope this helps!

font size by one point, there are two other shortcuts, Ctrl+> and Ctrl+<,
which increase or decrease the font size to the next listed size. For
example, Ctrl+> would increase the size from 12 to 14, whereas Ctrl+] would
increase it from 12 to 13.

Given that you know how to assign a shortcut key, you can
shortcut almost any formatting change - however complex - that
you might wish, by making the changes with the macro recorder
switched on, and assigning a shortcut key to the macro.
However the change you describe sounds like one that, in most
circumstances, would only be applied to whole paragraphs. If
that's what you're doing, go with Beth's suggestion and create a
new paragraph style via Format -> Style -> New. If you can't be
bothered with the Styles drop-down, by all means record the
selection of the required style and assign a shortcut key
combination to the macro, but Beth's right to advise the use of
styles, which guarantee consistency and make design changes much
easier. (Which remains true if we're talking character styles
rather than paragraph styles).

I believe that you meant to say...
Ctrl+Shift+> (or<) will increase (or decrease) the font by the increment on
the Font Size list.
Ctrl+[ (or ]) will increase (or decrease) the font in one point increments.
In addition, Ctrl+Shift+P will take the focus directly to the Font Size Tool
and allow you to enter the size of your choice. There are so many ways to
skin a cat!

Close, but actually Ctrl+] increases and Ctrl+[ decreases.
