See also section 7.10 in the docs, which tells you more about how styles are mapped to Latex macros and how you can supply ".tex" files to override the predefined macros: http://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/config.html?q=scribble But there's really not enough documented, so far. I have been working my way in the direction of documenting all the relevant Latex macros, but I was first working on documenting the CSS styles for HTML rendering, and I haven't gotten very far on that, either --- see http://lists.racket-lang.org/users/archive/2013-October/059838.html . For now, you can look at "scribble.tex" to see what macros are defined and that you can redefine. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
