Question font size doesn't change

I can't resize the following character → Alt+x code:05DB


If I change its size from ribbon (number1 in the picture) all works fine but if I change from number2 in picture it's size remains unchanged(if I open again window:2 it shows the new size 16px but actually it is 12px just it showed in the ribbon)
If I press Alt+x twice then it's size will update to 16px.

My problem is that I have a file with over 100 such characters and I want to reduce the character size. The find/replace window shows: 117 elements replaced , but none of them actually change until I press alt+x twice. I tried closing/reopening the file but no change. What can I do?

There seems to be some corruption in the document. You can clear it regarding the Kaf (כ) by creating one in the document body via 05DB, Alt-x, then copying/cutting it to the clipboard (which you could also do with the כ in this post) and using Find/Replace with:
כ
pasted into the Find panel, and
^c
typed into the Replace panel and specifying the required replacement font attributes.

unfortunately in this case Word don't pay attention in the Replace panel specified attributes but if I specify the attributes in the Find panel all works nice, so thanks the help!
