You can´t. I had to develop an application that needed text sizes bigger
than that, and i had to create a "special" text field in where if the size
was bigger than 96px (in fact the limit is on the line of the 80px, that´s
why i use 81 in the function), i scaled up (by for example 200%) the text
field and place the text scaled down (by 50% in this case).
The function i use to find the scale is:
private function calcFSize(pSize:Number, pDiv:Number):Number {
pDiv = pDiv || 1;
if ((pSize / pDiv) < 81) return pDiv;
return calcFSize(pSize, ++pDiv);
}
and you use it like:
var fontSize = 384;
var perc = calcFSize(fontSize); //fontSize is the size in pixels of the
font.
textformat.size = fontSize/perc;
textfield._xscale = textfield._yscale = perc * 100;

Anyone know how to format text to above 96px high using the texformat
object - it seems to just ignore them.
