LaTeX, fancyhdr

Question

I'm using fancyhdr package and I wonder if I can change size of the page number. I need 14 pt size but the auto size is about 10.

Answer 1

The fancyhdr package provides a \fancyfoot{} macro. This can be used to change the formatting of the page numbering. So:

\fancyfoot[EO]{\large \thepage}

should do the trick. The page number will be displayed in a 14.4pt size. You might want to play with the selectors, i.e., the [EO].

Answer 2

What's wrong with the way that the documentation shows?

\fancyfoot{}
\fancyfoot[RO, LE] {\Huge \thepage}

works fine for me.
