Problem with font size in adding text to picture

I open a picture to add text inside the picture area.
I hit shift plus T to bring up the text editor.
I am only given three font sizes 10, 12 and 15.
All of these options are too small.
I select 15 then change the 15 to 32 and see the large font in the text editor but when I add it to the picutre it still is 15 - too small.
How can I change the font size to a large size?

Try to change the font, or script. I have the sizes from 8 to 72 for most fonts. Larger font typed manually works good too.

How ?
I have three options from the menu 10, 12, 15. Not 8 to 72.
When I type in 32 or whatever, to overwrite the 15 option selected, it does show the large (32) font in the text editor window as a sample, but the typed font remains small, and it goes on the picture is small : 15 not 32 .
Only the font in the sample of the text editor window is large - the typed font stays small and when I close the text editor window then the font that I drag onto the picture is still small.
I uninstalled and reinstalled twice but it still does the same.

Hello !
• 10, 12, 15 only are the available sizes of the first font “
Courier”.
- Scroll the list and you will see other font faces having all sizes, in example Tahoma…
- I tested here, that works alright. All installed fonts are shown from the control :
Font : ……………… [
Choose…]

Merci, Clo.
That was the problem.
I had written large text on a photo before (using a font other than the default Courier font) so I knew it could be done.
Works just fine using fonts other than courier. See this:
