Different font sizes for mainfont and monofont

Different font sizes for mainfont and monofont

[Josh Lawrence]

Hello!

Is it possible to specify different font sizes for mainfont and monofont?  (For example, 12pt for the mainfont, and 10pt for the monofont.)  Here is the script I'm using to convert markdown to PDF:

https://termbin.com/r866

What I've researched so far:

I've seen that the Pandoc documentation says that mainfontoptions and monofontoptions are available via fontspec, but after reading the fontspec documentation, I'm completely lost.  Additionally I've seen that I can include headers in my pandoc command, but again I'm not sure what I would include at all.  I've also searched the mailing list archives, but again no luck (I could be searching for the wrong thing).  I'm hoping that there's a simple way to say "mainfont is 12pt, monofont is 10pt".

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thank you for your help!

Josh

Try this in your YAML metadata:

monofontoptions: 'Scale=0.9'

Also you may try the MatchLowercase option which often gives satisfactory
results in this situation, since it makes the x-height of the monofont
appear to be the same as that of the mainfont, which is likely to give the
best results with inline code.

First, thank you both for responding!

So I tried putting this in my script (found this line via Google):

monofontoptions:"Scale=Matchlowercase"

...which gave me this error:

Error producing PDF.
! Missing number, treated as zero.
<to be read again>
                   M
l.120 ...on, environment variables (\texttt{PAGER}

I'm not sure how to interpret the error, any ideas?

Thank you again,

Josh
