LATEX FONT SIZES ================ This is a quick list of the various font sizes for LaTeX. I was prompted to work these out by a question someone asked. Please note that these are only approximations. To work out the exact size requires some effort. For instructions on how to do it see /usr/local/texmf/lib/texmf/doc/latex2e/fntguide.* where * is tex, ps or dvi. The Styles came from the /usr/local/texmf/lib/texmf/tex/latex2e/base/ directory, files article.cls, book.cls, report.cls The sizes came from the files bk10.clo, bk11.clo, bk12.clo, size10.clo, size11.clo, size12.clo in the same directory. Style Size ===== ==== Article ------- Part huge or Large, bold Section Large, bold SubSection large, bold SubSubSection normal, bold Book, Report ------------ Part Huge or huge, bold Chapter Huge or huge, bold Section Large, bold SubSection large, bold SubSubSection normal, bold Title Page (Created by \maketitle) ---------------------------------- Title LARGE Author/date large Where there are two size options it means they depend on the depth of your numbering. You have to work out yourself which is which. It shouldn't be hard.
