Bold math symbol in \caption{}

Post by huddiex »

How to bold math symbol in \caption{} without affecting the List of Figure? I mean the font in the list should be plain. Can anyone help me?

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

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

Code: Select all

\caption[list entry]{title}

Fine :)

Just a remark: generally if a problem is solved you could mark the topic as "solved" by editing the your first post of the topic and by choosing the checkmark as topic icon.
