- Theoretically, yes you could do this. The method would be to move through the
- document a character at a time, highlighting it, and getting the font size.
- Then the macro would change the size to 4 times, then go to the next character
- until the end of the document is reached. However, practically, I don't think
- you would want to try this. It would be so slow a process that you would
- probably have to go kill yourself before it's finished.
