Help - New To Access

I am learning as I go with our Access Database. We had an outsourced IT group create the system and we bought it from them, when it comes to IT support sometimes it takes a bit for them to get back to us. I am needing help figuring out how to enlarge text, and change something a certain color.  In more detail, our system can build ID badges, I am needing to enlarge some of the text in a certain spot, and make just the back of the card black. This may be a long shot, but can anyone help?

    Is this a ID Badge a report? If so, you have extensive control over font size and font color for individual controls on it. 

    Open the report in design view. Select one of the text boxes you want to modify. Select the "Format" tab on the ribbon, look for fonts, font size and font color. Change them as desired. Test and adjust as needed.
