all my fonts are much smaller than before since typing1/2

[Scotty]

After typing a date e.g 23rd, the rd went very small and raised up and all
following words typed were in the reduced size. Now all fonts come out much
smaller. How can I get back to normal size for the fonts?

The small characters are formatted as superscripts. Select them and
press the Ctrl+Shift+= shortcut, or go the long way through the menu
Format > Font and uncheck the Superscript box.

If you don't want Word to automatically format the letters (ordinals),
go to Tools > AutoCorrect Options, click the AutoFormat As You Type
tab, and uncheck "Ordinals (1st) with superscript". You may also want
to uncheck most of the rest of the options there -- see
