Let's continue. Typically, the font size is set by selecting from a list. In this case, everything is the same. Type your letter, select it with the mouse and set the desired size. But the creators of Word and other programs never thought that to someone it comes to mind to put such font size in which one letter occupies as much as the entire A4 sheet. For this reason, in the font size selection list, the maximum size is not that large - “only” 72 points.


Since no the right size, then you can simply write it in the selection list, as shown in the figure, since the font size selection list is editable (what-what???). Unclear? Then you urgently need to learn Windows.

Again. Select your letter, then erase what is written there in the font selection list and write what you need. What number should I write? This generally depends on what type of font is chosen. Select until your letter is exactly the size of an A4 sheet. In my example, this is 800 points (to be more precise, I was too lazy to select).

Other ways to enlarge a letter to A4 sheet size

As you may have noticed, the method shown above of stretching a letter across the entire A4 sheet has an obvious drawback - no matter how you increase the font size, the letter stubbornly does not want to become in the center of the A4. In the example below, this drawback is completely eliminated and the letter is located exactly in the center of the A4 sheet.

In this example, the problem was solved in a different way, but again in Word. It is worth remembering that almost any task has more than one way of implementation. You just need to be good at what you are doing. However, method number one is much more popular - few people want to think about it!

How to print numbers on the entire A4 sheet in Word

A very similar task - in my opinion, completely similar to the one discussed above. To create huge numbers for A4 size, you can use all the same methods that I showed in. So if you need to make sure that one number fits on a sheet (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or the number 0), then consider that you can already do this. Well, this is, of course, if you carefully read what was written above.

And in addition to this, I’ll probably show you another way to enlarge the inscriptions to fill the entire sheet. Namely, contour symbols in A4 size. An example is shown in the figure. True, there is already a fill there, but you can figure out for yourself how to remove it... (hint: shape properties).

Why is this necessary? Well, for example, in order to color it all later. :) And indeed, color printers are not that common. By the way, you can read about printing color images on a black and white printer.

To make a figure that fits the entire A4 sheet, first remove the margins or make them as narrow as possible (about changing margins). After that, from the Ribbon menu in the “Insert” section, select WordArt and add it to the sheet. Then just increase the font, everything is clear. It’s just worth considering one feature.

Use the text frame markers along the edges to expand the box so that your number fits. Otherwise, it will go beyond the frame and part of the number will not be visible. You also need to center the text so that it is in the middle of the sheet. To do this, drag it outside the frame border (usually down).

Features of printing letters in A4 sheet size

There are some features of text printing such sizes that I didn’t show above (lazy). You can watch this in the demo video where I show the process of creating giant letters in Word.
