How do I manage fonts and font size in an individual post or textbox?

    In an individual post or textbox, How can I choose the font of increase/decrease its size in the WYSIWY content editor? I’m looking for button in the tool bar that would allow me to do this without switching to HTML and having to manually make the changes.

    I thought going to premium would allow me to do such a thing. WordPress.com must be simpler to use than I am finding it. Please advise.

    You can change your font body size here:

    It’s a better practice to use CSS to manage all aspects of the look of the site (you’re right – you shouldn’t have to do it line by line!). If you want to only increase a few paragraphs, you can add a new class in your custom CSS style sheet, and use that.

    To do that, you would want to define the class and the size. So maybe:

    .bigparagraph {font-size: 16px;}
    .smallparagraph {font-size: 12px;}

    And adjust from there. You would need to add these classes to your HTML still, but at least you could target specific paragraphs as you see fit.

    If you need more information, please just let me know!
