Alphabet

Does anyone know of a site on the puter network, that has the English alphabet with letter in various sizes that can be printed out?

If you have a word processor you already have what you need.  You can select both font style and size to suit what you want. 

Yoiu can even do it in e-mail format.

Microsoft word or whichever you have has a task bar on top and you just select the number (larger bigger) and all font are there also ....even this quick reply box that you post in has that feature .....

Open a document in your word processor.
The upperish menu bar has a small windiow that has font name (Ariel, New times Rroman, etc) with an arrow beside it that when clicked shows the available fonts.  (There are more fonts available on the web)
Next to that is a window with a number in it , probably a 12 or 14, with a down arrow next to it.  Click on the arrow and a selection of font sizes appears.  Select a different number and what ever you type from that popint on will be that font size and style, the bigger the number the bigger the letter.

Write a document, highlight a section of text with left mouse button, move to the font selector (size or style) and click, highlighted text will change to what you've selected. 
Move the cursor anywhere in a document and click.  The font style and size for that location will show up in the windows.

To the right of the font selectors are selection for italic, bold and underlined. These work the same way as the font selection.  Same as on this forum

Font size is really neat for school kids who have an assignment of "one type written" page.  Bigger fonts take up more space on the paper.  Of course you could stupid with that but one or two points is very hard to "see" a difference in.

Select the letter you want from the Keyboard in front of you, (small or capital options available on all keyboards) then select the style of letter you want from the drop down menu of just about any word processing program, ie Microsoft Word  ;D


Or, you could go here
