[Tex/LaTex] Bold Version of CMU Serif Roman / Latin Modern Roman Regular

Question

My current LaTeX document uses the following font for headings, which is either "CMU Serif Bold" by default or "Latin Modern Roman Bold" (the updated version of the CMU font) if you use \usepackage{lmodern}.:

However, I want the following font for my headings (it looks like a different bold version of "CMU Serif Roman" / "Latin Modern Roman Regular"):

Does anyone know how to do this?

EDIT:

After some more research, here is a CV I found on the internet that has implemented the font I want: http://petar-v.com/PetarV-CurriculumVitae.pdf (located at the very top). Maybe this helps someone?

Answer 1

Possibly you want the demi-bold. Hard to say, really - the font properties of the PDF you linked to will tell you for sure.

Here's a comparison of Latin Modern Roman medium, demi-bold and bold extended.

How to do this depends on your engine, which you didn't specify. I used pdfTeX and cfr-lm. Alternatively, use XeTeX or LuaTeX and fontspec.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{cfr-lm}
\begin{document}
\plstyle
\begin{tabular}{ll}
  LMR medium & Chapter 1 \\
  LMR demi & \textsb{Chapter 1} \\
  LMR bold extended & \textbf{Chapter 1}
\end{tabular}
\end{document}

CMU also has a non-extended bold serif. Here's a comparison:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\begin{document}
\begin{tabular}{ll}
  CMRU medium & Chapter 1 \\
  CMRU demi & \fontseries{b}\selectfont Chapter 1 \\
  CMRU bold extended & \textbf{Chapter 1}
\end{tabular}

\newcommand*\chtest{%
  \begin{tabular}{c}
    \tiny Chapter 1\\\scriptsize Chapter 1\\\footnotesize Chapter 1\\\small Chapter 1\\\normalsize Chapter 1\\\large  Chapter 1\\\Large  Chapter 1\\\LARGE  Chapter 1\\\Huge  Chapter 1
  \end{tabular}%
}
\begin{tabular}{ccc}
  \mdseries\chtest & \fontseries{b}\selectfont\chtest & \bfseries\chtest
\end{tabular}
\end{document}
