It is very hard to do that.

Font size is specified in points, as we all know, but it's measured from the top of the tallest capital letters to the bottom of the descenders.

Basically, type the letters A and p, draw a line across the top of the A and the bottom of the stem on the p, and measure between them. That's the font size. This means if you have two fonts and one of them has longer descenders than the other, 100-point type in the first face and 100-point type in the second will be very different-size type.

If you need some type that's an exact height...oh, letters three inches high to put on the sides of a boat or something...start by drawing two horizontal lines three inches apart. Put the baseline of the type on the bottom line, then start increasing the type size until the top of the letters touch the top line.
