How do I change the size of a subformula?
There are five variants of the size-changing command:
- size 20 a typesets a with the font size 20 pt.
- size +5 a typesets a with current font size plus 5pt.
- size -5 a typesets a with current font size minus 5pt.
- size *1.5 a typesets a with current font size multiplied by 1.5.
- size /1.5 a typesets a with current font size divided by 1.5.
You can change the font size of an entire subformula if you group it with { } or other brackets. Example:
Enter a b size *2 {c d} e to typeset abcde.
When several font size changes are applied, the innermost takes precedence as shown in this example:
Enter size *1.5 {a size 12 b size *1.5 c d} to get abcd.
To change the base font size used in Math see How do I change the fonts used in my formula?
