The \font markup can be used to allow you to make use of a specific font
available on your printer. You should always consult the font catalog for
the fonts available on your printer. The name given in the font catalog
goes where font name is with the \font markup. The user markup name you
must provide. It should be a unique name.

name \bigfont by entering,

with \selectspecificfont does.
This markup is described further in The TEXbook.
