I need font size = 14 in article document, but when I change
\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{article}
to
\documentclass[a4paper,14pt]{article}
font becomes even smaller. How to change font size?

Document class article only supports 10pt, 11pt, and 12pt. The default is 10pt.
Option 14pt is unknown, therefore you are getting 10pt.
You can get larger sizes with extsizes:
\documentclass[a4paper,14pt]{extarticle}
\usepackage{geometry}
It supports 8pt, 9pt, 10pt, 11pt, 12pt, 14pt, 17pt and 20pt.
Package geometry (or hyperref or some graphics drivers like pdftex.def or …) set the paper size to the output media.

2Just a note for Emacs Org mode users, you'd have to add-to-list org-latex-classes definition for extarticle similar to existing one for article to use it with LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS– mltCommented May 19, 2014 at 15:48

17Perhaps a little extra information about which sizes

2It works. But caution, it does not support 15pt, 16pt! Commented May 12, 2021 at 20:58
