Hi. It is actually quite easy:

   >>font-family=serif font-size=14pt<<
   Here is my bigger text in Times.

If you need to use the same setting at more than one place, it may be better 
to add a file "pub/css/local.css" containing something like:

   div.bigtimes { font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size:14pt; }

and then, in the page, use 

   >>bigtimes<<
   Here is my bigger text in Times.
