I have a document that needs several subject headers to be changed from a 12
pt font to an 11pt font. I know this can be done easily with Format Painter,
by holding down a specific key and highlighting the text that needs altering.
However, I am not sure of the process? Can anyone tell me?

Sandra,

Are subject headers all of the same style? If so, then change the font
setting in the style. See:

If you really want to do it with format painter then select a bit of
text and with it selected change the font to 11, then click format
painter. Now you simply paint the format at the other locations.

A much better approach is to modify the style applied to these headers or
headings.
