Changing the font and font size in target and source files.

I am translating files after OCR. Sometimes the OCR picks different font and/or font sizes for a sentence compared to the rest of the text. Is there a way to change font and font size in Editor in Studio 2021? I mean target or/and source rather than the editor window.

    You cannot change font sizes in Studio, as this is not a layout program. What you can do however is avoiding inserting some font formatting tags, if you select the view "Show all tags but do not show formatting".

    The only way to have this solved is to preformat the ocr-ed document before translating in Studio. What is extremely important there: adapt the font to styles and styles to the font. Do not use local formatting, but rather stick to styles. This way you can avoid any unwanted font changes.

    Anyway, dealing with files after OCR is a bit of a game. Mostly you know what would be better only after you finish. Sometimes it is better to tidy the document up upfront, but with a quite good PCR usually it saves you work only to reformat the target, as the source will not be needed after the translation, it exists as PDF already.
