Can I enlarge text beyond the font size options for poster titles

[Science Fair]

I want to make titles for a science fair display, and I can't figure out how
to go beyond the pre-set font size selections. Can I convert the text to an
object somehow and then enlarge it?

Select the text, then type the font size in the font size window replacing
whatever number is there and *press enter*.

Thankyou. Hitting enter after changing the number was the trick; otherwise
the number defaults back to the pre-selected size.
