You have a lot of options with NFSS2 (New Font Selection Scheme).

	\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}

switches from whatever to sans-serif.

	\renewcommand{\sfdefault}{ma1}

sets Arial as standard sans-serif font.

	\fontsize{18}{20}\selectfont

just selects the given dimensions. The complete command of selecting a  
particular font at a particular size and shape is:

	\fontfamily{f!#}\fontencoding{U}\fontseries{x}\fontshape{ul} 
\fontsize{18}{20}\selectfont

You can create your own short commands...
