Question

Font size changes automatically when changing language of typing

Anonymous

Hello,

I type a document in 2 languages, English and Thai. Whenever I switch language from English to Thai, the font size will automatically increased by 2 steps (i.e. from 16 to 20). And when I switch back from Thai to English, the font size will also automatically decreased by 2 steps. How can I fix this issue?

Regards,

This is set in the Style for your text. Assuming you are using Normal style, follow these steps:

In Word, right-click on Normal in Home>Style Gallery and choose Modify.
In the bottom left corner, click on Format, then Font.

(Note to other readers, you must have both a Western and Asian language enabled to follow this step.) At the top of the Font dialog is the Latin text section. This controls the font size for English. Below it is the Complex scripts section that controls the Thai font. Change the font size to be the same for both sections and OK out.
