Hello All:

I've been working for two days trying to find a way to change the font name selected places in a book.

Basically, what I want to do is set the Chapter and all Section Headings in Palatino, and the rest of the text in Times.

I have no problems changing the font to Times in the Preamble. However, I've not been able to come up with a way to use Palatino in the Chapter title and Headings. I thiuight that I might be able to use a \newenvironment approach, but everything I've tried has failed.

I've looked at the LyX docs and several LaTeX books too, and they don't mention anything about this. I'm I trying to do something impossible, or does someone out there know how to implement this change.

I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Ralph

Using the koma-script book class, here is a very crude example of changing the font of different chapter and sectional headings. Although I don't know how to get Palatino font. Maybe someone else knows? For more information check out the koma-script documentation page 50, although it lists only \rmfamily, \sffamily, and \ttfamily as possible font choices. Hopefully someone else can fill in the gaps.

As per Paul Rubin's example you can get Palatino font by inserting:

\fontencoding{OT1}\fontfamily{ppl}

into my example as:

\addtokomafont{sectioning}{\fontencoding{OT1}\fontfamily{ppl}}
