I am doing a brief for court. The rules provide: "A proportionally spaced 
typeface 
(e.g., Century Schoolbook, CG Times, Times New Roman, and New Century) must be 
14-point or larger." I use new century Schoolbook.

As the base text is 12 point, the only way I see to do this is to highlight the 
text and 
mark it in lyx text-style as "large,"  which throws off symmetry of the 
document (e.g. 
subsections are also "large.")

This is a real pain.  Any suggestions as to how I can otherwise get text in the 
document to 14 point?

One thing:  I am relying on 

https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/40104/difference-between-latex-and-word-in-setting-font-size#40108[1]

and common sense for my conclusion that when I check base size 12 in document 
settings 12 point text is produced. However, on the printed page base size text 
actually looks to be closer to 14 point.  Perhaps if I actually measure the 
type when 
printed base size 12 will really be closer to 14 point? 

I am using lyx version 2.3.2 on Debian stretch.

Thanks for any suggestions?

John White
