I'm coding in over leaf and using different new theorem styles. Here's my preamble.
\documentclass[8pt,letterpaper, oneside]{report}

\topmargin -20pt
\headsep 10pt
\textheight 8.7in
\textwidth 6.65in
\linespread{1.2}

The problem I am getting is that if I make, say a theorem and a corollary, then they are number Theorem 1 and Corollary 1. How can I display the same counter for all new theorem styles? I mean I would like Theorem 1, Corollary 2, Proposition 3. I don't want a different counter for each newtheorem style.
\newtheorem{conjecture}[theorem]{Conjecture}\newtheorem{proposition}[theorem]{Proposition}
. Have you checked that the document option8pt
has any effect? My guess is that there is a warning in the log file saying that8pt
is unknown and therefore is ignored. Usually there is only the choice between10pt
(default),11pt
, and12pt
.
