How do I get larger font sizes?
Actually you can go much larger. Select the text, click in the Font Size
box, type a number between 1 and 1638, and press the Enter key. (I think you may be able to do half sizes too but I'm not positive.) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Todd" wrote in message ...

How do I get larger font sizes?
Yes, you can use half sizes. Unlike Publisher, however, Word permits only
half-point (not tenth of a point) increments. -- Suzanne S.

I thought so but let's face it, if you're using something over 72 pts who
really needs a half point more? :-) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ... Yes, you can use half sizes.

How do I get larger font sizes?
But when you get down in the very low ranges, half a point can be
significant. -- Suzanne S.

:-)
I found I'm more likely to change the 'tween sized fonts to a round number. Something about a 13.8 pt font just doesn't make sense to me. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Suzanne S.

Nope. I can take it down to 13 or tweak the textbox a hair to get 14. :-)
