Convert capital letters to lowercase. Hot combinations and WORD keys
With Word and Publisher, you can print poster letters and resize them from 1 to 1638.
For beginners, the difficulty is that it is not clear how to make the letters larger if the standard sizes are limited to font size 72.
This article discusses the issue of increasing standard size font, as well as the question of how to create a WordArt title.
How to print capital letters
1. Set the scale smaller because we need to see the sheets and the letters on them in order to edit the inscription.
1.1. In Word 2010, in the status bar we find the scale tool.
Use the slider or click the minus button to reduce the sheet size.
tool - scale
(Picture 1)
1.2. In Word 2003, the scale can be set in two ways - by selecting the desired one in the toolbar.
(Figure 2)
The second way is to click "View" / "Scale" 
(Figure 3)
(Figure 4)
After we have chosen the scale, we can see several sheets at once and how the inscription will look.
2. Change the size of the letters.
If you don't know how to increase the letter size (more than 72pt), then it's quite simple.
We erase what is written in the “Font Size” window:
— place the cursor inside the “Font Size” window;
— delete the number indicating the old size using the backspace or delete key;
— print the new font size, remembering that the upper limit is the number 1938 and if you type 1939, the program will report an error.
2.1. In word 2010, go to the “Home” tab, erase the old font size and type 72, and then press Enter.
(Figure 5)
2.2. In word 3003 you also need to erase the font.
(Figure 6)
Here's what I got.
(Figure 7)
Working with WordArt
This feature is not available in Word 2010, but is present in Publisher, where the inscription can be printed and copied into Word.
3. To make WordArt text, turn on the drawing panel in Word 2003; to do this, click “View” / “Toolbar” / “Drawing”. Now click on the letter A in the WordArt panel and select a font for the ad text.
(Figure 8)
And now you can write the text in full or in parts...
(Figure 9)
4. After we have received part of the text, we need to move it, move it, but it won’t work that easily - we will have to change the settings of the WordArt object. To do this, select the text, click on the selected object right click mouse and select “Format WordArt Object” in the window that appears.
(Figure 10)
5. Then in the window that appears, we must go to the “Position” tab and select “By contour”, now we can freely move and enlarge our object.
Go to the Position tab and select Along contour

Conclusion
If you are going to print an inscription for a poster in Word, then this can be done using regular text enlarged in size and WordArt text.
And not always new program has better opportunities And outdated program word can print exactly the same, you just need to know the location of the tools.
Good luck with your poster.
Let's continue. Typically, the font size is set by selecting from a list. IN in this case all the same. Type your letter, select it with the mouse and set the desired size. But the creators of Word and other programs never thought that to someone it comes to mind to put such font size in which one letter occupies as much as the entire A4 sheet. For this reason, in the font size selection list maximum size not that big - “only” 72 points.
Since no the right size, then you can simply write it in the selection list, as shown in the figure, since the font size selection list is editable (what-what???). Unclear? Then you urgently need to learn Windows.
Again. Select your letter, then erase what is written there in the font selection list and write what you need. What number should I write? This generally depends on what type of font is chosen. Select until your letter is exactly the size of an A4 sheet. In my example, this is 800 points (to be more precise, I was too lazy to select).

Other ways to enlarge a letter to A4 sheet size
As you may have noticed, the method shown above of stretching a letter across the entire A4 sheet has an obvious drawback - no matter how you increase the font size, the letter stubbornly does not want to become in the center of the A4. In the example below, this drawback is completely eliminated and the letter is located exactly in the center of the A4 sheet.
In this example, the problem was solved in a different way, but again in Word. It is worth remembering that almost any task has more than one way of implementation. You just need to be good at what you are doing. However, method number one is much more popular - few people want to think about it!
How to print numbers on the entire A4 sheet in Word
A very similar task - in my opinion, completely similar to the one discussed above. To create huge numbers for A4 size, you can use all the same methods that I showed in. So if you need to make sure that one number fits on a sheet (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or the number 0), then consider that you can already do this. Well, this is, of course, if you carefully read what was written above.
And in addition to this, I’ll probably show you another way to enlarge the inscriptions to fill the entire sheet. Namely, contour symbols in A4 size. An example is shown in the figure. True, there is already a fill there, but you can figure out for yourself how to remove it... (hint: shape properties).
Why is this necessary? Well, for example, in order to color it all later. :) And indeed, color printers are not that common. By the way, you can read about printing color images on a black and white printer.
To make a figure that fits the entire A4 sheet, first remove the margins or make them as narrow as possible (about changing margins). After that, from the Ribbon menu in the “Insert” section, select WordArt and add it to the sheet. Then just increase the font, everything is clear. It’s just worth considering one feature.
Use the text frame markers along the edges to expand the box so that your number fits. Otherwise, it will go beyond the frame and part of the number will not be visible. You also need to center the text so that it is in the middle of the sheet. To do this, drag it outside the frame border (usually down).
Features of printing letters in A4 sheet size
There are some features of text printing such sizes that I didn’t show above (lazy). You can watch this in the demo video where I show the process of creating giant letters in Word.

On enough simple example shows how to make a huge letter or number. Large inscriptions are usually printed from such letters. How to do this, watch the video.
Instructions
In most cases Word application from the manufacturer Microsoft Office is installed already given settings. In particular, as a rule, the text in this program is typed like this by default. The sentence, as it should be according to the rules of the Russian language, begins with a capital letter, the text is lowercase. As soon as you put a period, a new sentence will automatically be written with capital letters.
But sometimes in the text you need to replace small letters with large ones. There are several ways you can do this. For example, if you need while typing text document write a word in capital letters, press the Shift button (there are two on the keyboard - left and right, use either one) and hold it while writing the word or abbreviation.
You can also write a word in capital letters using keyboard key Caps Lock. Press once this button and type the text. As soon as you need to change the case, press the key again. If you're typing using Caps Lock, press and hold Shift to type multiple letters in lowercase. Once you have made the necessary changes, release the key.
If you have already written a word in small letters and you need to replace it with capital letters, use the mouse to select the word or part of the text that needs editing. Then move the mouse cursor to top panel tools and find the “Format” section. With one click on the button with the corresponding inscription, open the menu and select the “Register” option. Click this button and in the window that opens, select one of the proposed text writing options: as in sentences, all lowercase, all uppercase, start with capital letters (in this case, each word will be written with a capital letter), change case. After specifying the appropriate method for changing the letters, click “OK” to confirm the operation.
If you just need to change the size of letters in the text, select the word or phrase, right-click and select “Font” in the drop-down window. In the new window in the “Size” table, select the desired font size. Click OK. In the same table, you can apply other changes to the text: font, style, text color, modification, underlining, as well as spacing and animation.
There is also an easier way to change text written in small letters. To do this, select it and simultaneously press Shift+F3. When you press them again, the case will change: from lowercase to capital letters, as in sentences, each word is capitalized, etc. In this case, you only have to choose one of the options.
When formatting a text document, there is often a need to make all letters capitalize. In addition to the most basic method with caps, there are two more methods for solving the problem. Let's look at it in more detail below.
What are these “CAPITAL” letters?
In order not to be confused between the names: uppercase, uppercase and lowercase letters, it is worth considering examples.
“IF THE SENTENCE IS WRITTEN IN CAPITAL LETTERS” - in another way they say that only capital letters or big ones.
“if the text is written in small letters” - this means that only lowercase letters are used in the text.
Now after clear example it will become easier to call a spade a spade and you won’t have to replace “ capital letters to capital letters." So, to make lowercase letters capital letters, you should choose the most suitable one from the methods below.
Using the Register icon

The selection will change from lowercase to uppercase.
