    ã|Description:ã%
There are  two default \selectfontsets  established when you  format a TEXT1
file:  \twelvept for the  12 point size Computer Modern serif typestyle; and
\tenpt for the 10 point Computer Modern serif typestyle.
    The  font set includes the following nine faces, each of which is called
by  adding a  backslash in  front of  the name,  or using  the abbreviation:
\roman (\rm),  \bold (\bd), \italic  (\it), \typewriter  (\tt), \caps (\cc),
\mathitalic (\mi), \symbol (\sy), \extension (\ex), and \bolditalic (\bi).
 
    ã|Example:ã%
Consider this example for switching from 12 point to a 10 point size.

    ã|Notes:ã%
There are some markup,  such as \figure, \blockquotebegin, \autoendnote, and
\autofootnote which use \tenpt in formatting.  If you decide you want to use
another 10 point  font set (like Plantin) instead  of Computer Modern as the
default, you must give that set the same name, "tenpt":
 
\selectfontset{pl10}{tenpt}{default}
\selectfontset{pl12}{twelvept}{default}
\selectmathset{cg97m}{mathdefault}
\tenpt
