If you just change the text size of one letter in Word it will only align with the line it is in so this will not work as you want.
I suggest you create a picture of the letter you want. Once you have a picture of the letter insert it in the text document and make it the size you want by pulling one of the corners. Then change the formatting by right clicking on it. Select 'Text Wrapping' and choose 'Tight' - this will allow the text of the document to fit around the picture.
To create a picture of the letter you want there are different ways but a simple way is to type the letter in word and make it big enough to take up say a quarter of the screen. Then make a copy of the whole page with the 'Print Screen' button (Prt Sc). Paste this into the Paint programme and then copy or cut the part of the image you want to use. This can be pasted directly into your word document or saved as an image first.
With this technique you can make the letter as ornate as you like as you sometimes see in old books not just the plain letter you have in your picture.
Good Luck,
Steve

I by and large do not inform folks this for the reason that they robotically suppose i am a schizo maniac. I don't think you'll mind too much. It is a detailed tie, however I feel the quantity one is: My condo used to be empty--and...Of path...Very darkish. I thought I was once the one one within the condo however I heard manic laughing and excessive sobbing from someplace in the apartment. Unable to converse or control myself, I followed the sound. I entered a room with no lights on and saved walking down what seemed to be a long hall: my dream mothers and fathers' bedroom. There was once a gentle on amongst the dark. There was my brother. He was sobbing quietly. I known as out his title however he failed to transfer or communicate. Finally the sunshine simply went out and his sobbing simply drifted via the darkish air. And then there was once my mother. She was once laughing hysterically. Her face looked to be made from plastic--she didn't speak and even appear into my eyes. She simply laughed...And he or she stored getting closer. I was once overwhelmed--it seemed so real. There used to be a knife in my hand. I do not know why--I stabbed her. Maybe i'm schizo. I stabbed her however she simply saved laughing. She under no circumstances stopped. Even when she used to be a mess against the ground, she simply saved laughing. The voices and laughter and sobbing of youngsters echoed within the heritage. I am SO crazy.
