Fifteen Point Macro

plain TeX


The following code allows one to change to fifteen point fonts throughout a selected section merely by using the normal font change commands. The definitions for nine, twelve and fifteen point fonts are required. For use within a TeX file or as an input file.

Example: {\fifteenpoint \rm {\bf This type will be in a fifteen point bold font} {\it while this type will be in a fifteen point italic font} and even the math fonts, $a^2+b^2=c^2$, will be in a fifteen point italic font}.


%=============================================================================
% {\fifteenpoint\rm ...}    { all fonts will be 15 point including math fonts }  
% {\fifteenpoint $...$ }    { math only to be in 15 point font }
