Theses, Books, Title pages ⇒ How do I change the font to Arial and size 12?

[templateuser]

Hey! Great template – I’ll buy you a coffee for sure. But one question, how do I change the font to ARIAL and to size 12pt; valid for the entire thesis?

Kind regards and thanks, Chris

Hi Chris,

To use 12pt Arial change the first uncommented line in main.tex to:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt, a4paper, oneside]{Thesis}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Arial}

You will need to compile with XeLaTeX after this. Alternatively, to keep compiling with LaTeX, use Helvetica which is an analogue to Arial by replacing that same line with:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt, a4paper, oneside]{Thesis}
\usepackage{helvet}
\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}

Cheers,
Vel
