LCD Text Size

I have my arduino interfaced with a 16x2 LCD display (from Sparkfun) and I'm wondering if there is anyway to get "TEST" to cover both lines (increase font size?).

I think this would be do-able using 6 of the 8 custom characters available with character LCD modules. You have three unique letters in the word 'TEST' so use one custom character for the upper part of the 'T', another for the lower part of the 'T', another for the upper part of the 'E', and so on.

Thank you. That can become alot of work quick!

jeeep, have you seen the thread at http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1245352653?

The "big font" there looks like it only has numbers, but you might be able to use those elements to construct letters too.

If you do, don't forget to share and share alike here.
