Font Size for Bibliography title
Is there any way to change the font size of the "Bibliography" title?
Re: Font Size for Bibliography title
"Richard" == Richard A Bilonick [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Richard Is there any way to change the font size of the Richard "Bibliography" title? Not simply. The font of size used is the same as section (for article, report) or chapter (for books). What kind of change would you like to do? JMarc
Re: Font Size for Bibliography title
I'm making a report and I'm using subsection titles (without numbers). If I use section titles I get huge (IMO) titles. The bibliography title is also huge. I'm just making "standard" (for us) reports with 1" margins all around. Maybe the question should be, can I change the font size of all section titles (headings?)? Thanks.
