What font did you use? I want to print a number that is 10 inches high to
make a stencil. How?

After nearly 3 years???
I don't recall what font I used. Experiment with whatever you want.
I don't use "inches" but Times New Roman in 1050 point looks close.

Whatever font you choose, type the font size in the font size box on the
toolbar, then press Enter or Tab so it "takes."

Be aware that you can do this in Notepad, Wordpad or even MS Paint.
