Do you have a “Custom CSS” section of the dashboard, or are you using a Child Theme?
Neither 🙁 I’m still a beginner and have no idea how I go about doing those..

Install this Custom CSS Manager plugin and use its section of the dashboard to hold this:
.entry-content,
.entry-summary {
font-size: 18px;
}
The font size is at “18” pixels (px) by default. You can reduce that number.
It worked! But I would only like the text in my blog to be smaller, not all the text in the whole website. What to do?

Try amending this part:
.entry-content,
.entry-summary
To this
.single .entry-content,
.single .entry-summary
Thanks so much! That did the trick. Just one more thing, if I want to change the font itself let’s say from calibri to century gothic, how can I do that? Again, only for the blog text.

If it’s a font commonly found across browsers then you can write a simple line of CSS to apply that font.
E.g,
.single .entry-content,
.single .entry-summary {
font-size: 18px;
font-family: arial;
}
If it’s not a commonly available font found across browsers then you may have to download the font from a vendor like Font Squirrel and then convert them to web-compatible font files. Once you’ve done that you can use CSS @font-face to apply them in CSS.
No coding!
Try this plugin instead http://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-google-fonts/ .
Alright thank you very much for all your help!
