I have to change font and font size for text. I cannot do a change all
because some text translations have to remain in their original font. In
order to make the job easier, is there a way to create a command key, like an
f1 key that I can keep clicking once I select the text to be changed. A
quick way to set a key so that it will command Calibri 11 each time I select?

It would be easier than having to go to the font drop down list, finding the
font, then placing the font size in.

Thank you very much

You could make a Character Style specifying Calibri 11 and nothing
else. If the translations are in a different alphabet, and they're
typed using Unicode, then trying to apply Calibri to it will have no
effect on it, so it's ok to Select All and choose Calibri; you could
also choose 11 pt at the same time, and if the text in the other
alphabet needs to be a different size, you could Find that font, and
Replace with the size you need it to be.

If the translations are in separate paragraphs, it's even easier --
just make paragraph styles for the two sets of specifications.

well, that sounds good except that the part that I do not want to change are
Chinese letters in an MS Word font call Simsun. How would I be able to tell
if Simsun is in Unicode, per your reply? thank you for your assistance (I
vaguely remember that Unicode might have to do with the amount of space a
character takes up, [totally not sure] and that Chinese characters are wider,
so they take up more space, of course, it may not have anything to do with
that.

It is.

And 11 pt Chinese looks just fine in 11 pt Calibri.

Yes, that is not what Unicode has to do with, and yes, it does not
have anything to do with that.

Chinese/Japanese/Korean "took up more space" long before there was
such a thing as Unicode (each character takes two bytes). Unicode is a
universal system that assigns codings to every alphabet so that you
can do exactly what you want to do without worrying about it.
