Increase Font Size for a single Chapter Title

Post by AleCes »

Hello everybody,

I need to increase the font size of a single chapter title. Can I do that with titlesec? I didn't find anything to that effect in the manual.

Minimal example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{titlesec}

\begin{document}
  \chapter{Title with Larger Font Size}
  \chapter{Title with Normal Font Size}
\end{document}

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

It's outrageously easy, no need to bother with titlesec

Code: Select all

\documentclass{book}

\begin{document}
\chapter[Title with Larger Font Size]{\Huge\selectfont{Title with Larger Font Size}}
\chapter{Title with Normal Font Size}
\end{document}
Thanks to Bob Tennent on tug.org for suggesting such tip!
