To specify a different size for the document, use\nthe YAML option 'fontsize'\n\n```yaml\n---\nfontsize: 11pt\n---\n```\n\nAny TeX-compatible unit should work, like e.g. `ex`, `in` or `mm`. However, to\navoid layout breaks, it is recommended to use one of the most common sizes\n`10pt`, `11pt` or `12pt`.\n\n### Customize Fonts\n\nYou can adjust fonts by adjusting Quarto's [PDF font\noptions](https://quarto.org/docs/reference/formats/pdf.html#fonts).\n\nTo use a different font, e.g.\n[Roboto](https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Roboto), download and unpack the font\narchive to get the TTF files. We use these in the example below:\n\n- `Roboto-Bold.ttf`\n- `Roboto-BoldItalic.ttf`\n- `Roboto-Italic.ttf`\n- `Roboto-Regular.ttf`\n\nThen adjust the frontmatter as follows:\n\n```yaml\n---\n# Used for most parts of the letter.\nmainfont: Roboto\nmainfontoptions:\n- Extension=.ttf\n- UprightFont=*-Regular\n- BoldFont=*-Bold\n- ItalicFont=*-Italic\n- BoldItalicFont=*-BoldItalic\n# Used for back-address and address field.\nsansfont: Roboto\nsansfontoptions:\n- Extension=.ttf\n- UprightFont=*-Regular\n- BoldFont=*-Bold\n- ItalicFont=*-Italic\n- BoldItalicFont=*-BoldItalic\n---\n```\n\nFor more involved letters, you may want to consider setting `monofont` and\n`mathfont` and their respective options.\n\n## Credits\n\nI got inspired by Mickaël Canouil's\n[quarto-letter](https://github.com/mcanouil/quarto-letter) extension, but needed\nsomething that adheres to DIN 5008.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmavam%2Fquarto-brief","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmavam%2Fquarto-brief","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmavam%2Fquarto-brief/lists"}
