i Need someone to write me a lua script that is able to write multi-line messages on a monitor with a variable font size.
I have tried but it has not worked on multiplayer so a multiplayer tested one would be great.

Thanks

You can't have characters in a monitor all different sizes.
The whole screen has only one font size that effects all.

Try this

function monitor(side)
    if peripheral.isPresent(side) then
	    term.redirect(peripheral.wrap(side))
    end
end

function size(side, number)
  if peripheral.isPresent(side) then
	  peripheral.wrap(side).setTextScale(number)
  end
end

This is clearly not a program
But use this with a print("bla") and thats the closest you are going to get without making it look pretty.
Just whip it into a program />

i use this to print the time on a monitor

while true do
local time = os.time()
time = textutils.formatTime(time, false)
mon = peripheral.wrap("top", true)
mon.setTextScale(5)
mon.setCursorPos(1,1)
mon.write(time)
sleep(0,1)
mon.clear()
end
