I just read a story where the writer used a significantly larger font than the default for one line of text. Does anyone know how that is done?

Thanks!

I thought I'd seen this recently, but after I saw your question checked the text using Tools->Web Developer->Page Source in Firefox. The words I thought were in a larger font were in all caps, and tagged with <strong></strong>. There wasn't otherwise any change in font size.

I don't know what browser you're using, but it probably has a similar tool.
 
Thanks!

I don't know when I would use it, but it's nice to have in the repertoire.
 
It's possible you're seeing a story that was posted while there were bugs with some tags. I know Blockquote used to change the font when used. It didn't actually change the font size, but the font looked bigger.
 
The "strong" tags simply mean bold.

A quick Google search of "html syntax" will show you how to change font size.

Whatever - be careful when using ANY emphases to the default font - italics, bold, size, whatever: the Android APP does not recognize them, and that readership will not see the changes.
 
The skinny of it is you can't purposely change the font size or face. If you insert the tags, they'll be removed. It's not one of the allowed tags for Lit formatting.

Apparently, <hr> also works, as that was demonstrated not too long ago in published stories.
