Text Formatting ⇒ Altering the Font Size of Document Class Headings

[lnsam22]

Hi Latex forum,

I'm using book type document class with a few additions (see mwe code). does anyone know what the easiest (or shortest) method of getting the sections and subsection headings (as well as chapters and all other headings) to be in the same size 12 font?

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt]{book}% sets font size
\usepackage{amsmath}%
\usepackage{amsfonts}%
\usepackage{amssymb}%
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{chicago}% to do with biblio
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\usepackage{listings}% helps write source code from matlab
\usepackage[authordate]{biblatex-chicago}
\bibliography{mwexample}% its the biblio style used
\usepackage{setspace}% allows for use of double spacing
\usepackage[centering,text={5.5in,9in}]{geometry}

%%----------------------------------------------------------
\doublespacing
\begin{document}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

my text goes here

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\end{document}

lnsam22 says 'thanks' for any assistance

Your example is no MWE. Regarding your problem you could use the sectsty package for a simple approach or the titlesec package as the more sophisticated way.
