Re: multirow | Unexpected Errors

Thanks. That was it. I thought I had pulled the latest version down but I guess not. It works fine now.

Re: RGB to CMYK

Thanks kaiserkarl13. It didn't change what what outside the trim, but everything inside was changed. This is great. Will save me a couple of steps in the future.

RGB to CMYK

I am using Textures to set a book. I am using the BOOK class. The printer requires files in CMYK. I've set up the palatte and changed all the colors that I use to CMYK. When I create a PDF, there are some stray RGB colors, mainly in the folios and running heads. For the past 10 years I've just run ...

Last Section on Page into the Header

I am using »book« class. If I have \section{xxx} twice on the same page, it puts the first section name in the running header. How do I get it to put the last section heading there? I'd like Section 3.3 in the head. Thanks.

Rule above Section Heading

I have text that is 32pc (1pc=12pt) wide. I'd like to place a 3pt rule above the section headings. Is there an easy way to do this? I've tried modifying the class file but run into problems when the section number changes from 1.9 to 1.10.


Thanks

Re: Changing size of typewriter typeface

It's too big in relation to example 17. I realize that in example 14, both the basal text and the \tt font are 11 point. Optically, it looks bigger even though they are both 11 point. I don't want the \tt at 11 point. I'd like it smaller throughtout the document as in the listing. I thought there ...

Changing size of typewriter typeface

Here is a link to a sample page. We've set hundreds of textbooks with various "typewriter" faces including Courier, Letter Gothic, Monospace 821. We almost always have to drop a point size when using a monospace font to make it look the same size as the text. It would be nice if the type in #14 was ...

Changing size of typewriter typeface

I'm setting a book in 11pt type and using the Listings package. The author thinks the \tt font is too big. I changed the parameters of the listing to \small and this looks great. Is there a way resize the rest of the typewriter font used in the document to "small"?
