Text Formatting ⇒ Section Costumization

[Upboiler]

Hi all,

I am working on my thesis and need my section titles to be left justified, non-bold text. The document style I am using is specific to my department's, but I believe article style also bolds the sections automatically.

Basically I need them to look like this:
1.1 Title Here

But instead they look like this:
1.1 Title Here

The best I seem to be able to do is by typing \section{\normaltext{Title Here}} but then I get this:

1.1 Title Here

And I need everything to be non bold.

I have tried playing with the sectsty and titlesec options but to no avail. I'd really appreciate some help. Thanks!

Add

Code: Select all

\usepackage{sectsty}
\sectionfont{\normalfont}

to your preamble.

The titlesec package is another package that allows customization of headings.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,english]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage[md,raggedright]{titlesec}
\usepackage{blindtext}

\begin{document}
  \blinddocument
\end{document}

But the package is capable of much more than only to format headings (e. g. page styles). The manual has the details.

The blindtext package is not part of the solution. It has only been use to create dummy text.
