10

Org exports LaTeX with default font size of 11 pts. Is it possible to make this font size to 10 pts and also reduce spacing to one and half space ? Regards

  • The general question of changing font size is more complex, as a given document class may or may not support the desired font size. Consider the extsizes package if you bump into this. – dat Feb 18 '22 at 18:56

I think you can do this with:

#+latex_class_options: [10pt]

and 

#+latex_header: \usepackage{setspace}
#+latex_header: \onehalfspacing

    hi John! love your stuff, I always end up at your website when googling how to do things with elfeed – american-ninja-warrior Jul 06 '18 at 07:20
  • Thanks for this answer. When I try `#+latex_header: \documentclass[12pt]{article}` this does not have any effect, The document is printed with 11pt font. But when I added your suggestion `#+latex_class_options: [12pt]` this worked. Do you know why `#+latex_header: \documentclass[12pt]{article}` does not change the font size? – zeynel Sep 20 '22 at 17:36
  • the latex class is set by #+latex_class, not by a latex_header. those lines all go after the class definition. See https://orgmode.org/manual/LaTeX-header-and-sectioning.html – John Kitchin Sep 24 '22 at 00:52
