  Hi Belinda - can you let me know whether you're using a classic or a Beam template please?

  Thank you for your reply. I assume I am using a Beam template? I am using the downtown template.

  Hi again - yes, that's a Beam template. You can change the font size in two ways - the simpler way is to select the text you want to adjust and use the '¶' button to show a list of styles, each of which are associated with a different size of text. The slightly more complex way is only advised if you know HTML code, and requires pressing the '<>' button to display the source code of your About text where you can use the '<font size>' tag to set the size of your text.

  If you want to change the font you need to use the 'Fonts' section of the site builder - this appears in the left hand column. Expand the 'Fonts' section and you can choose from a predefined set of fonts from the 'Font Set' menu, or specify individual fonts for each of the items listed below. The font listed under 'Body' will be the font used on your About page, unless you used one of the 'Header' styles from the '¶' menu I mentioned above in which case 'Headline' is the font it will use. Again, you can also use HTML code to set the font directly in the About page using the '<font>' tag, but you can only choose from the options listed in the Fonts section of the Site Builder.

  I am trying to get my head around the HTML code and have figured out how to change font size but then am not sure how to also change the space between lines of text?

  You can set the line spacing using the method described in this answer: https://support.photoshelter.com/hc/communities/public/questions/203158160-Line-spacing-in-Beam-Element-Template?locale=en-us
