bibliography

Post by adhikarig »

hi

I am using natbib package to define bibliographic style. I wonder is there any option available (or possible modification) so that i can redefined the heading style (such as font, position)... by the way i am using book class.

secondly, i am using font urw-garamond which seems to me slightly bigger in size compared to ms word. in print version, i found 11pt in word is actually 10.5pt in latex..
is there any global scale option that reduces all the font sizes used in the document by same amount. or i have to define individual font size....

thanks

gopal

What does your preamble look like? When you define documentclass does it look like this:

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{book}

As you can see, you can alter the font size here. Unless I am misunderstanding what you are asking for.

In terms of changing the bibliography name, font, etc, you should be able to use \renewcommand, for example:
\renewcommand*{\bibname}{\huge{\sl{Bibliografia}}}

If you use renewcommand somewhere in the document you should be fine. I tend to put all of mine at the beginning of the document.

Hope this is useful.
