Is the maximum size of a True Type font 127? As part of our Splash screen, we tried to duplicate a Flash like exploding text string where a text string rapidly grows in size until it fills the screen. Based on our experience, there appears to be no way to display text in a font size greater than 127. Am I correct in this assumption or are there API workarounds to display text in a super large font size?

I'm looking for a simple solution as this is obviously not a mission critical feature - in fact it's more of an irritating distraction that's been on one of my rainy day todo lists for awhile.

Any feedback appreciated.
