Thumbs up Answer: What is the Error "The Number Must be between 1 and 600"?

The error "The Number Must be between 1 and 600" usually appears in the fonts menu when you are trying to set a font size that is either too small or too large. This error message is a warning that the font size you are trying to use is outside the acceptable range of font sizes that Microsoft Word can handle.

In Microsoft Word, font sizes are measured in points, with one point equaling 1/72 of an inch. The smallest font size that can be used in Word is 1 point, while the largest is 600 points. If you try to set a font size outside this range, you will receive the error message.

To fix this error, simply choose a font size that falls within the acceptable range. You can do this by selecting the text you want to modify, clicking on the font size drop-down menu in the Home tab of the ribbon, and selecting a font size that is between 1 and 600 points.

It's important to note that using font sizes that are too small or too large can make your document difficult to read, so it's best to stick to standard font sizes that are easy on the eyes.
