Just replace the \huge command with the following sequence.
\fontsize{36}{42}\selectfontDon't forget to use the \textbackslash selectfont command to activate the new font size. The second argument of the \fontsize command is the interlinear space and should have about additional 20\% of the first value.

I've tried your suggestion with \fontsize{36}{42}\selectfontwhich works fine. The problem is that I want an even bigger size, say 100 or something. The size doesn't seem to get any larger than 40. | ||

try the fix-cm package:
\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article} \usepackage{fix-cm} \begin{document} \fontsize{100}{120}\selectfont Huge text \end{document}

> try the fix-cm package Stefan, you're a lifesaver! This worked perfectly! I don't know how long I've been trying to get it to work without success… Thank you so much! Cheers, | ||

You should get the desired result with any postscript font, too. Just try some font packages from the CTAN Catalogue. http://ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/bytopic.html#fonts
