[Solved] Adjusting font size after copying/pasting formula

Post by pr103 »

I've created formulas on Open Office Math and copied and pasted the formula onto Writer but the font size is small even though the font size in Math is 17pt.
How can I change the font size (before or after) copying and pasting the formula onto Writer? I would like the font size of the formulas to be 17pt in Writer.
Also, how do I change font size separately for each formula or equation?
Thanks.

I don't see any way to do this, other than copy/paste the formula text itself. Is that what you did or is there some other path that I'm missing?

The font size is small after I copied and pasted the formula into Writer. I went to Insert -> Object -> Formula. How do I enlarge font size?

Never mind. It works now. I just fixed the font size in Math and then went to insert -> Object -> OLE Object.

For the record, this query may give some links.
Perhaps that one: Automatic resize of Math formulas.
And this one: See here: [Issue] Set base size for all formula/math objects at once.
