Subscript size

Post by jaybz »

How can I decrease the subscript size for this?

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\begin{document}
\begin{center}
\begin{Huge}
$\displaystyle \vec v = \vec v_{\parallel} + \vec v_{\perp}$\\
\end{Huge}
\end{center}
\end{document}

You can replace \parallel by something like \mbox{\large$\parallel$}. Id. for \perp.
