I am trying to create a command to modify fontsize with one parameter, it seems that the paramater is not expanding properly:  \newcommand{\mycfs}[1]{\fontsize{#1pt}{1.2*#1pt}}

The first image is what I have at the moment, the second image is what I would like to get. As you can see, in the second image the formula font size is a little bit bigger than in the first image. I would like to make all the formulas font size a little bit bigger. I tried using, as suggested , \DeclareMathSizes{14}{15}{7}{7} (note that in beamer I am using 14pt as font size) but it did not produce any effect.  \documentclass[14pt,handout,t]{beamer} \usepackage{lmodern} \usepackage[english,italian]{babel} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \geometry{paperwidth=297mm,paperheight=210mm} \usefonttheme{professionalfonts}  \renewcommand{\sfdefault}{phv} %change font \DeclareMathSizes{14}{15}{7}{7}  \begin{document} \begin{frame} complesso: $\alpha=\alpha_{r}+i\alpha_{i}$ \end{frame}  \end{document}

I have an equation in my document which is unbreakable and does not fit on one line using the twocolumn global option. Am I forced to shrink the text size here? And how do I go about doing it? \resizebox does not function in math mode.    \documentclass[twocolumn]{ltxdoc} \usepackage{amsmath} \begin{document} \begin{equation} \sum_{q_\mathrm{total}=0}^{q_A+N_A+q_B+N_B-2}\left(\sum_{q_A=0}^{q_\mathrm{total}}\left(\binom{q_A+N_A-1}{q_A}\binom{q_B+N_B-1}{q_B}\right)\right)x^{q_\mathrm{total}} \end{equation} \end{document}

I want to change the font size of particular frames, and when I use   \fontsize{&lt;font size&gt;}{&lt;value for \baselineskip&gt;}\selectfont   as suggested by , I found it does not change the font size inside nest lists. Is there a way to change those font size accordingly?

Forgive the stupid simplicity of this question, and please feel free to refer me to an older answer. I'm not quite familiar enough with LaTeX terminology to have found it.  All I want to do is set a different default format for my section titles. Instead of just being bolded and slightly larger than the main text, I'd like them to be of normal weight, the same size as the main text, and all caps.   I'm using the article class.

A publication I am submitting to has the rather annoying requirement of needing the document title to be size 16pt (and the regular text size being 12pt, which I know how to do). I have absolutely no idea how to change the font size of the title (beyond adding \Large, \LARGE etc. but none of these correspond to 16pt).  How would I go about setting the font size of the title to a specific size?

This question led to a new package:      This is a followup to . The idea is to switch between two different margin sizes. The answer provided by @godbyk work very well. However, it is difficult if you are using an asymmetric page layout (e.g. \documentclass[twoside]{article} and the fullwidth environment spans over two pages. Is it possible to make it work in these cases, too?   The memoir manual states:       Note that the adjustwidth environment applies to complete paragraphs;   you can’t change the width of part of a paragraph except for hanging   paragraphs or more esoterically via \parshape. Further, if the   adjusted paragraph crosses a page boundary the margin changes are   constant; a paragraph that is, say, wider at the right on the first   page will also be wider at the right as it continues onto the   following page.   So, how to do it esoterically ;)  MWE:  \documentclass[twoside]{article}  \usepackage{changepage}% provides the adjustwidth environment  % The following code should be used *after* any changes to the margins and % page layout are made (e.g., after the geometry package has been loaded). \newlength{\fullwidthlen} \setlength{\fullwidthlen}{\marginparwidth} \addtolength{\fullwidthlen}{\marginparsep}  \newenvironment{fullwidth}{%   \begin{adjustwidth*}{}{-\fullwidthlen}% }{%   \end{adjustwidth*}% }  \usepackage{lipsum}% provides dummy text  \begin{document}  \lipsum[1]  \begin{fullwidth}     \lipsum[2-10] \end{fullwidth}  \lipsum[3]  \end{document}

I would like to italicize my figure captions and make them smaller.  How can I do that?

I would like to increase the size of pretty much every headlines, so that it is more prominent than the normal text.  I read about the  package, but can't seem to find good example how to use the package.  Using Gonzalo Medina does in fact change the font size, however, it changes the default font as well.

\documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[paperheight=9in,paperwidth=13.24in,margin=0in]{geometry} \usepackage{pstricks} \usepackage{graphicx} \begin{document} \thispagestyle{empty} \psset{unit=1in} \begin{pspicture}(13.24in,9in) \psframe[fillstyle=solid,fillcolor=Maroon](0,0)(13.24,9)  \end{pspicture}  \end{document}   I am following a tutorial outlined here:   I am following the Robbers book.  Everything seems fine until I paste the \psframe[fillstyle=solid,fillcolor=Maroon](0,0)(13.24,9)  What could be the problem?

I have to submit a manuscript to a journal, and I just realized that they want every single part of the paper to be in 12 pt font. This includes tables text, footnotes, acknowledgements etc. Is there a way to force all text to be the same size?

My document should be letterpaper and my attachments should be a4paper. I had high hopes for the \newgeometry command from the geometry package, but the documentation says      \newgeometry is almost similar to   \geometry except that \newgeometry   disables all the options specified in   the preamble and skips the   papersize-related options: landscape,   portrait and paper size options (such   as papersize, paper=a4paper and so   forth).   Any help is appreciated!

I am trying to enlarge letter spacing.  I have already tried , but it seems it can enlarge only for a single phrase and i would like to enlarge for entire document.  Soul command was something like this:  \so{phrase with more letter spacing here}   Which is the command to set a higher letter spacing for all the document?

Sometimes, a float is just a tiny bit too large for one page and one would like to remove the page number and hope that nobody notices.  \documentclass{article} \usepackage{mwe} \begin{document} \blindtext \begin{figure} \thispagestyle{empty} \includegraphics[width=\linewidth,height=1.02\textheight]{example-image-a} \caption{This float is too large for one page.} \end{figure} \blindtext \end{document}   (Why, of course this is an artificial example and I could just make the image smaller. This is a more common problem for tables where using a \resizebox looks even worse.)   Unfortunately, no matter where I put the \thispagestyle{empty}, there is no way to guarantee that it really affects the page the float ends up on. I tried both before and after the \includegraphics and also in the caption itself. There is a way to change the pagestyle for all float pages ( and floatpag) but that's not what I want here.

I am working with the article class.  I have four authors. Unfortunately, they are just a tiny bit too wide to fit on one line. (I'm talking less than a quarter inch from the margins I had set.) How can I do one of the two following things:   Decrease the space between the authors, just a little bit Make the page temporarily wider around the title   I've tried \newgeometry/\restoregeometry, but that clears the page at the commands. I've tried changepage's adjustwidth, but that makes latex output one extra page at the beginning.

Basically, I want the header fonts to use a different (smaller) font size than the size I set using \documentclass. What should be the option I'd be using ?  \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage[margin=1in, headsep=10pt]{geometry} \usepackage{fancyhdr} \pagestyle{fancy}  \fancyhead[L]{Personal Statement} % What other option should I use to get a custom font size ?

I would like the footnote counter to automatically restart from '1' for each page of my document.
