AI Thread Summary
To increase the size of all mathematical formulas in a LaTeX document using MikTeX, users can utilize the \displaystyle command or adjust the font size settings in the document preamble. For example, using \large or \Large can effectively increase the size of the math content. To center an image, the \centering command can be used within a figure environment, along with the \includegraphics command. It's recommended to use a dedicated LaTeX editor for better functionality, especially for editing math fonts, rather than a basic text editor like Notepad.

Anyone good with LaTeX? (not the built in stuff (although its probably the same))

I'm trying to type a school document in \LaTeX (using MikTeX) and everything is going pretty smooth except for a few things. How the hell do I increase the size of ALL mathematical formula.
I want all of the math in the document to become larger. So, for example if this: e^{ix}=\cos x + i \sin x is the size in my document. How do I increase it to, let's say twice its size?
Also, if anyone knows how to center an image (I'm using the \includegraphics command) please let me know.
Thanks a billion!
Seriously \LaTeX is awesome by the way. (on a side note) I'm hoping my skills in it will get good enough so I finally stop using Microsoft word... yuck :(

Well you probably have to use the word processing programs font size changer...
 
To center an image just use the \centering command. e.g.:

\begin{figure}
\centering
\includegraphics[scale = X]{ImageName}
\caption{sdsd}
\end{figure}

PS
 
Thanks primal :) that worked like a charm.

Pengwuino, I'm using notepad. Should I use a specific \TeX editor to change the math font?
