im doing this rn for it:
{\Huge \scshape Elvin Zha} \\ \vspace{1pt}}

how do i make it less thicc

[rancid zodiac]

so you want it bigger but not bolder 🤔

[prime raptor]

yeeee

thinner i guess

I cant tell if its some command I have to use or its a different font all together

[rancid zodiac]

I think you'd need to make your own font command

[prime raptor]

what would the command have to do

[rancid zodiac]

haven't had a case where this would bother me, and I also can't find any posts about it

[prime raptor]

😭 yeah i couldnt find anything

[rancid zodiac]

but usually, I'd set the biggest or smallest font in the \documentclass[20pt]{extarticle} and then change other font sizes to smaller/larger

\documentclass[20pt]{extarticle}

\begin{document}
\textsc{Defaulted To Big}, \tiny \textsc{Tiny}
\end{document}

so something like that

[prime raptor]

i see

[rancid zodiac]

but then tiny isn't the default tiny anymore, instead it looks more like what you'd usually consider 12pt in size

hope others can give better solutions :)

[prime raptor]

anyone else got a decent solution?

or know of thinner computer modern font

@prime raptor I've had the opposite problem; CMR was printed too thin by laserjet printers at our uni, I wanted to make it “bolder” without actually changing the font. I've never gotten around trying that out, but remember reading this post on the TeX stackexchange: https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/225027/how-to-create-new-font-which-is-thicker-version-of-computer-modern
From your screenshot, I think simple font substitution occurred (1st solution described in the selected answer). I.e. a large font size was used, and scaled down.

thank you that worked!
