I'm using dreamweaver version 4.0 and can't get text to be anywhere
near as large as I would like it to be.

Would appreciate any direction.

Thanks.

Depending on how big you would like the text, you can specify the "pt"
of the text by doing the following in HTML (you can modify the HTML of
Dreamweaver by clicking: View>Code or View>Code and Design):
...

<font style="font-size: 90pt">Put the text here that you would like to
make bigger or smaller.</font>

...
You can change the size of it by modifying: "90" in "font-size: 90pt"

As for doing it in Dreamweaver, they would require you to make a CSS
style sheet; by doing it the way stated above would be easier (I
believe).
