Document Classes ⇒ Chapter title sizes

[j5comp]

Hi! I'm a real newbie at this, so I hope someone is willing to help. I'm wanting to change the size of the font for my chapter title; its too big and there's too much spacing below it. I'd also like to make it single spaced I tried using the \titleformat command, but it didn't make any changes. I'm using the fancyhdr package, but I'm not real sure if the fancyhdr package even effects my chapter font or size.

Any suggestions? Thanks for all the help!!!

Hi j5comp,

what documentclass do you use? Using report and no special package for sectioning titles I would redefine \@makechapterhead.

I'm sorry, I'm seriously very new at this.

can you give me an example?

What is the first line of your tex-Document? It should look like

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{report}

Is it report, or book, or something else?

Do you use the titlesec-package? That means, do you have a line

Code: Select all

\usepackage{titlesec}

inside your document?
