           Summary: "Increase Font" only increases font to 72pt, also
                    reduces larger fonts down to 72pt
          Severity: trivial
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: [email protected]
          Hardware: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: 3.3.0 release
         Component: Writer
           Product: LibreOffice

Description:
Sometimes, using "Increase Font" can be very helpful for setting the font size
to some arbitrary size, especially before wrapping.  Unfortunately, it caps out
at the arbitrary size of 72pt.  Even the drop-down menu goes until 96pt.  I
don't see a reason for a cap at all, and think it should scale all the way up
to the maximum font size, like Draw does.

Worse, if you start with a larger font size and press "Increase Font," it will
reduce the font size down to 72pt.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Type some text
2. Highlight text
3. Use "Increase Font" function (ctrl ]) or by enabling the toolbar button
(right click->visible buttons->Increase Font.
4. Keep clicking until it maxes out at 72pt
5. Manually type in a font size of 150pt and press enter
6. Use "Increase Font" function (ctrl ]) or by enabling the toolbar button
(right click->visible buttons->Increase Font.
7. Notice that the font has been reduced back down to 72pt. 

More:
I guess this is half enhancement request and half trivial bug report.  I'm
setting to trivial because it behaves in an obviously wrong manner by reducing
larger fonts to 72pt. Obviously, this is not that big of a deal and is quite
easy to work around.

I tested this on versions of Libreoffice 4.2.x, 4.1.x, 4.0.x, 3.5.7, but
ultimately saw the same behavior in OpenOffice 3.2.1.  Since this predates the
LibreOffice project, I'll set the version to 3.3.0.
