How can you access the font size tool on the formatting toolbar?

Correct answer: A

A
Ctrl+Shift+P
Correct
B
Ctrl+Shift+S
C
Ctrl+S
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

The shortcut Ctrl+Shift+P is commonly used in Microsoft Word and similar word processors to access the font size tool. In older versions of Word (2000-2003), this shortcut focused the font size box on the toolbar, allowing direct typing of a new font size. In newer versions (2010 and later), it opens the full Font dialog box where font size can be adjusted. Other shortcuts like Ctrl+Shift+S or Ctrl+S perform different functions (e.g., Save or Styles pane). Therefore, option A is correct for accessing the font size tool via keyboard shortcut.
