textFormat.size maximum?

It seem that the textFormat.size property has a maximum - attempting to set it to something like 160 doesn’t work correctly…

This page says the maximum is 72, [URL=“http://forum.sephiroth.it/showthread.php?t=8684”]This Page says its 130 - can anyone confirm this, and are there workarounds?

This may, or may not, help with a workaround:

The actual limit seems to vary between 72 and 96, although some claim a higher maximum value - my best guess is that it’s limited to the maximum value you can obtain with the slider in the text properties window.

Thanks, yes I thought I would have to scale the textField to get around it…
