Changing the font size of an output file in batch

ok so I am now in college and need to know what day of the week it is so i can tell what schedual to follow so i was making a batch file to fetch the day of the week everyday and save the results to word pad in size 72 font

problem is that i cant find a way to save the output to size 72 font any ideas

basicly i want the final output file to be written with size 72 font

 

Use the RTF file format for wordpad documents. RTF is a markup language (similar to HTML but with comletely different syntax). Just use Google to find RTF tutorials. The \fsX marks the font size where X is the fontsize * 2 (144 for 72pt).

Code:

@echo off &setlocal
set "today=08/28/2011"
>test.rtf echo {\rtf1\fs144 %today%}
start "" wordpad "test.rtf"

o ty very much man i figured you would know the solution

 

Unfortunately my knowledge in RTF is very poor and I'm sure saving Word .DOCs as .RTF won't help you. Here you can find some documentation and examples.
