Fonts and font size
Hi!
I am wondering about the font size. In my contacts with LiU-tryck, they have recommended at least 12 points, since they scale the pdf to a smaller format than A4 for the printed version. If I'm not mistaken, the template is set to 10 points. Could I just change to \documentclass[12pt,phd,filfak,english]{liuthesis}
or do I run into some other problems then? Or do you recommend some other way?
On a similar note, I find the default font, Latin Modern, to be a bit too thin. I saw that I can change the font in the settings.tex
file, but at least with the font I intend to use that didn't come out that good. It looks much better when I use the latex package for the font, then I can get old style figures and the math environments also looks nice. Unless this causes some other problems, it might something of interest for other users as well. A list of packages with serif fonts can be found here: http://www.tug.dk/FontCatalogue/seriffonts.html
Thank you for providing this template and your support!
All the best, Richard
