How to shrink the headers / chapters in dissertation?

TeX - LaTeX Asked by Red shoes on September 29, 2020

I want to reduce the font size for headers (chapters). As you can see in the picture, the header is too big. Is there any command that will do the job?

My dissertation TeX file contains 1-chapters, 2-Main and 3-ref. All commands have been written in the Main file.

Following are the all packages which I use.

usepackage[T1,T5]{fontenc}

usepackage{colordvi,cite,comment,color}
usepackage{subfigure}

%usepackage{amsbsy,amsfonts,amsmath,amssymb,amsthm,amsxtra}

usepackage{epsfig,fancyhdr,latexsym}

usepackage[stable]{footmisc}

usepackage{amscd}

usepackage{amsfonts}

usepackage{indentfirst}

usepackage{verbatim}

usepackage{amsmath}

usepackage{showlabels}

usepackage{cite}

usepackage{hyperref}

usepackage{enumitem}

usepackage{cancel}

usepackage{todonotes}

usepackage{amssymb}

hypersetup{colorlinks=true, urlcolor=black}

hypersetup{citecolor=black}

usepackage[subfigure]{tocloft}

usepackage{sectsty}

allsectionsfont{normalsizeraggedright}

One Answer

Since you employ the article document class, you could issue the following instructions in the preamble:

usepackage{sectsty}
allsectionsfont{normalsizeraggedright}

If this doesn't work, it may be because you're also loading packages, such as titlesec, which affect the appearance of sectioning headers. If that's the case, do please provide more information about the contents of the preamble of your document.
