Hello, I would err against using a 'reverse' font, as I've found they are often limited to a small subset of characters, and can sometime cause problems when sending to print.
I would recommend Art Campbell's suggestion, of using a table with a fill setting. This way, the document can use the regular prescribed font - which can assist situations where a document has to be translated for a multi-language interfaces.

Or * Set up a single-cell table, set the cell background to black and create a paragraph tag with the font set to white. And I'd hang the table from a special Anchor paragraph tag that you only use for that purpose, so you can control the placement precisely.
