I have this installed and like it much better than bitstream stuff.

BUT, the docs say ... 'to test your fonts select a font size 72 and
   see the nice screen display.'

DESIGNER:  something is wrong here.  I selected a large font, no 
  problem.  Then I selected the test and changed it to bold.  The
  bounding selection box changes wrt text size.  When I turn bold
  off, the selection box does not change  ?????  Also, the bold
  seems to move down on the screen ????? man

WINWORD:  The biggest point size I can enter is 127.  I thought that
  I should be able to have characters the size of the page???
  For 127, I have to enter it manually, the scroll box stops at 48.

I have RTMs...Am I doing something wrong?
