248126 2004-06-28 05:10:00 I run Microsoft Office 2000 via W98SE. Word only allows me 72 point fonts. I could use something bigger - especially if it was a larger type ARIAL. I have looked via Google, but have found little to help. Rather than spend the next 100 days looking, can anyone out there point me in the right direction? All help appreciated as always. slofox (5767)
248127 2004-06-28 05:18:00 To get non-standard font sizes, enter the font size you want into the font size box (rather than selecting one of the standard sizes) - I do this on the toolbar rather than through the menu and it works fine. andrew93 (249)
248128 2004-06-28 05:19:00 Hi slofox. Instead of accepting Word's font size 72, type in a size you want. You can specify many hundred and more than fill your A4 page with one character. Good luck Scouse (83)
248129 2004-06-28 05:21:00 I have just started to much around with mine (Office 2000) to see how far it will go and once you get up to a font size of Arial 500, you can only get one character on each line! :D andrew93 (249)

248131 2004-06-28 05:23:00 Karge btw is the Wanganui area variant of the word large.

248132 2004-06-28 06:20:00 Letter A in times New Roman, size 600 fills one page. Word tells me that it will take to size 1638. Scouse (83)
248133 2004-06-28 06:21:00 Oops, sorry. meant to say that it tells you this via an error message if you try to make it greater than that size. Scouse (83)
248134 2004-06-28 06:24:00 Metla - bye the way - thanks for the email re the no-cd cracks. Joe Scouse (83)
