Default Text Boxes - Autofit text

Hello

Is there any way that I can make text automatically reduce in size to
autofit a text box.

Thank you

Default Text Boxes - Autofit text

Depending on Word version, you may find an option on the Text Box tab of the
Format Text Box dialog to fit the box to the text, but not the other way
around. You do get this option with table cells, so you could insert a
single-cell table in the text box.

Thank you, I will use the single cell table.
