Setting font name, size, and style
You can use commands to specify any combination of font name, size, and style, in that order.
These commands change selected text and text you dictate from then on.
To set a font name, size, or style
Say "Set Size" or "Set Font Size" or "Format That" and the font name, size, and/or style.
Examples:
"Set Font Times"
"Set Font Size 12 Points"
"Format That Courier 18 Points Bold"
"Format That Arial 12 Points"
To remove font formatting
To remove bold, italics, underline, and strikeout formatting, say "Format That Plain Text."
