fancyhdr --- lowercase chapter reference on RO header

Post by Sekantombi »

Friends,

I am using fancyhdr, and wish to place a whole-of-document heading at LE (which has worked) and the chapter heading on RO (which has partially worked).

"Partially" because while I have been able to get chapter name and number using \leftmark, it is in uppercase.

The LE header material is in \textbf, lowercase, which is exactly how I want it.

How can I make them match up?

Is there some other keyword I can invoke to capture the \chapter value?

Or is it inevitable that I have to do a \renewcommand?

Search the documentation of fancyhdr for the \nouppercase command. Some ideas are given in another thread [1]. The search function of the forum may yield other hits.
