Default Page-Sized Single Initial/Letter

How can I type/find a way to print a single initial that will fill an 8.5 x
11 page? Word fonts only go up to 72 points --which is not nearly large
enough. For example, I want to print a "B" that will take up the whole page.
Can I do this in Word 2003 or in Publisher 2003?


The font size dropdown only has entries up to 72 points, but you can
type any size from 1 point to 1638 points, in 0.5 point increments,
and then press Enter to apply it to the selected text.

The largest font size that lets the entire character appear on the
page is about 900 points. You also need to go into the Paragraph
dialog and set the line spacing to an Exact value of about 800 points.
