At Wawaloam, a teacher tried to print a list of sight words using a serif type face at 300 points to Sharp Find Me. The prints were mangled and or blank. Through some trial and error, we discovered the maximum type size Sharp Find Me can handle. The magic number is 231. Anything bigger prints as a blank. Who knew? If you want to print larger than 231 points to Sharp Find Me, you can take a screenshot of the word, scale the image, then print the image. Cumbersome, but doable. Or, print to a different printer such as a home inkjet.
