Changing the caption font to Times New Roman in pdfLatex

[amjad-sh]

Hello,
I want to change the font of the captions of the figures in my document into Times New Roman.
Anybody has an idea how to achieve this?
I spent a long time searching for it on internet but didn't find a clear answer.

Try this:
In the document declarations, mention \usepackage{fontspec}
Next, specify your roman font: \setromanfont{Times New Roman}
In the caption, use {\rmfamily Place caption text here}

This works if the font family is installed in your system. If not, define the font:

\setromanfont[
BoldFont=timesbd.ttf,
ItalicFont=timesi.ttf,
BoldItalicFont=timesbi.ttf,
]{times.ttf}
