I'm writing in a document that uses sans-serif 10pt. In one section, inline math looked too big, so I used \everymath{\scriptstyle} inside a group to change it locally. But now it looks too small. Is there an in between, or can I set the number of pts manually? Thanks

Thanks! I'm not familiar with fragile commands. How can I tell if I'm constructing something fragile? Is it the command I'm declaring or its substitute, i.e., is \newcommand\overlap{} the issue or what's inside the fragile part?

Using stackrel and stackinset in a figure caption results in the error

Am I missing something?

Hi all,

I have an eps figure with x- and-ylabels set to a,b,c,d, and e, corresponding to -pi through pi in increments of pi/2 (see example and attachment). I also have x and y axes labeled X and Y, respectively. When I try to replace these with greek symbols \pi or \Delta, I get unexpected symbols ...

Hi all,

I'm writing for springer, and they ask for equation/eqnarray instead of the more modern packages, so please forgive my use of equation. Also, they ask for mathptmx, which is the source of my troubles here

For me, LaTeX is a black box in the middle of my TeX and the first output stage (DVI, for example). I find very little information about the behind-the-scenes TeX interpretation/compilation. Is there a resource for how this works in general?

Hi all,

Is there any way to modify this example to get it to change like: i.e. bump up the subscript?

Hi all,

I'm working in Beamer, so my page size is small. I have table with large width and small height, and I'd like to display it on one slide.

I've already reduced the size of the table with all the tricks I came across, but I will need to split it along two lines.

Ideally, I want the table ...

Hi all,

I have an equation inside a nested itemize environment, like
\begin{itemize}
\item blah
\begin{itemize}
\item blah
\begin{align*}
&y = f(x)
\end{align*}
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}

However, I'd like the left of the equation to be flush with the left margin, not indented like the itemize ...
