I have the latest version of Adobe Dreamweaver which just replaced my much older version. I use it to manage my website. However, I cannot determine how to adjust the FONT SIZE.

Can anyone help with this?

Thanks,

D a v e

Are you trying to change the font size for a particular tag, such as the <p> tag, globally?

Do you have an external style sheet where your font sizes are defined? If, so you may see definitions like this:

h1 {
    font-size: 3.7vw;
    font-weight:300;
    text-align:center;
}
h2 {
    font-size: 2.9vw;
    font-weight:300;
    text-align:center;
}

p {
    font-size: 1.6vw;
    font-weight:400;
    text-align:left;
}

The unit of measurement for fonts can be pixels (14px), ems, rems, viewport widths (as in the example above), as well as other units.

On my "old" Dreamweaver all I had to do was highlight the word I wanted to change the size of, drop down a font size menu, and click the new size.

Thank you,

Dave
