Making a Text Box automatically "best fit" text

Is there a way, like in Publisher, to make a text box automatically best fit your text? Or do I have to just keep playing with the font size until I find the right size?

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.5.1)

Gentry,

It's the latter. Text boxes won't automatically fit your text -- with one exception: if you make a linking text box, the copy will fill the first one, and the overflow will appear in the linked box.
