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

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Font size? Textwidth? You realy should explain what you want.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

If you mean the font size, here is an example:

Code: Select all

{\small
your text

}
The braces {...} limit the effect of the font size command. Note the empty line within the braces: end the paragraph before the closing brace, not after it. So TeX knows at the end of the paragraph that a different font size was used, for the line spacing.
