I am dealing with the proofs of my academic paper, which is dealt with by some company who use LaTeX only for setting each equation individually. In order to adapt the font size in an equation (let's not discuss here why) I could use commands like \small
, i.e.
\small
\begin{eqnarray*}
a=b.
\end{eqnarray*}
but is there a way to scale the fontsize to an arbitrary size? Note that I cannot use any packages, but standard LaTeX commands work. There must be a way, since I have seen it done in a the proofs of another paper, but cannot remember how. (Internet searches only bring up solutions with commands like \small
or some LaTeX package.)
I attempted
\scalebox{0.98}{
\begin{eqnarray*}
a=b.
\end{eqnarray*}
}
but got missing \endgroup
(from the LaTeX interface used for proof editing).
\fontsize
work for you?\DeclareMathSizes
but confused myself, arbitrary sizes still work here, as you say.
