...and if you have a IIGS, you could use Pointless to render a TrueType font
into a bitmapped font of any size.  I mainly used it to render fonts for use
with SuperFonts, PublishIt!, and other 8-bit apps.  (IIRC, SuperFonts is
limited to 127 pt., though, which is a bit over an inch and a half...half of
that if you're printing in high-quality (144x144 or 160x144 dpi) mode.)
