How can I write my chapter headings in LaTeX like this?
1 Answer
The simplest approach is to use the »quotchap« package. It defines exactly this chapter style. But that is not the main purpose of this package.
\documentclass[11pt]{report}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[newcentury]{quotchap}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\begin{document}
\blinddocument
\end{document}
Addendum:
As mentioned in a comment, you an also use »titlesec« to get that chapter style.
\documentclass[11pt]{report}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\newcommand{\chapnumfont}{% % define font for chapter number
\usefont{T1}{pnc}{b}{n}% % choose New Chancery, bold, normal shape
\fontsize{100}{100}% % font size 100pt, baselineskip 100pt
\selectfont% % activate font
}
\colorlet{chapnumcol}{gray!75} % color for chapter number
\titleformat{\chapter}[display]
{\filleft\bfseries}
{\filleft\chapnumfont\textcolor{chapnumcol}{\thechapter}}
{-24pt}
{\Huge}
\begin{document}
\blinddocument
\end{document}
