I am trying to emulate MS Word 2010 functionality with LaTeX since I am fed up with word.
I am using TexShop, and I have been able to set the main font to Calibri through the use of XeTeX.
How do I set a different font/color/size for every type of section (section,subsection,subsubsection,…), without being limited to the standard LaTeX fonts? It would be nice to be able to choose any font from my system like XeTeX allows me to.
I have tried the package sectsty
, but I was not able to figure out how to use Calibri with it.

The best way to have total control over the sectioning is the
titlesec
package. Here's a quick version of the standard MSWord sectioning for the first three levels. To control colours, you need thexcolor
package.If you are using different fonts for different section levels (not recommended) you should use
fontspec
's\newfontfamily
command to define the font first, then use that in the redefinition of the title format, as in thesubsubsection
example.This document can be compiled with either XeLaTeX or LuaLaTeX.
