    Lo all,

    I am after a App that allows me to print in an extra large font. I have Libre and Paint but the largest on these is 96 in Libre and 72 in Paint. I don't have Word/Excell/PP so am looking for an alternative.

    I am in the process of making a cottage name sign on a Welsh Grey slate. I need to trace the name onto the slate before painting and sealing etc.

    Grateful for any idea from you clever people.

    TT

    In Paint you can just click on the number and type a higher number.

    Another little tip, if you want office software. Libre Office is free https://www.libreoffice.org/

    It has word processing, spreadsheets etc. but also a drawing app. it uses vectors as far as I know so you don't get pixelation as you zoom in.

    You'd have to look online if want guides on how to use it.

    Just realising you said you have Libre :D
