[comp.text.tex] VERY Huge letters

nishio@mizar.kuis.kyoto-u.ac.jp (Nishio `Cchwitz' Shuichi) (12/14/90)

Is it possible to use a letter of size larger than \Huge in LaTeX?
I think making fonts of larger sizes may work for this, but I want to
do this only by existing fonts.
Actually, I want to use PS fonts of 60pt and larger, by dvips, without
magnifying the rest of the page.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

janowsky@math.rutgers.edu (Steven Janowsky) told me to use \newfont,
ken@csis.dit.csiro.au (Ken Yap) told me to use TeX command \font,
and (Harry Payne) <payne@stsci.edu> sent me his own style file, which
allows to use LaTeX command \HUGE (30pt), \monster (40pt), and so on
for postscript fonts using psfonts.sty. Although I have not yet tried
his macro, I think this is just what I needed.

Thank you very much for all your responses.
