[Tex/LaTex] Changing figure captions into italic

captionsitalic

Is it possible to change text in figure captions to italic. So this is what I want to get:

I tried with this code:

\usepackage[format=plain,labelfont=bf,up,textfont=it,up]{caption}

but word Figure is just bold not italic.

You have a mes in definition of caption ... try something like

\usepackage[format=plain,
            labelfont={bf,it},
            textfont=it]{caption}

which gives figure in boldface italic text or

\usepackage[format=plain,
            labelfont=it,
            textfont=it]{caption}

if you like to have Figure only in italic shape. The latter case can be shortly written as:

\usepackage[format=plain,
            font=it]{caption}

You should use the babel package and set the language to hungarian. This also changes the typesetting rules. If Number Figure is the proper sequence in Hungarian, it should automatically change this. On this (Hungarian) site you can find Babel documentation.

Edit: If you check page 207 of this document is says:

In the part, chapter, appendix name the number (or letter) goes before the name, so ‘Part I’ translates to ‘I. rész’.

The same is true with captions (‘Table 2.1’ goes to ‘2.1. táblázat’).

the command you should use in your preamble is:

\usepackage[hungarian]{babel}

\usepackage[magyar]{babel}

[Tex/LaTex] Changing style of table caption

You're almost there:

\usepackage{caption}
\DeclareCaptionFormat{hfillstart}{\hfill#1#2#3\par}
\DeclareCaptionFont{mdit}{\mdseries\itshape}
\captionsetup[table]{
  format=hfillstart,
  labelsep=newline,
  justification=centering,
  font=bf,
  labelfont=mdit,
}
\usepackage{floatrow}
\floatsetup[table]{capposition=top}

I'm not too much convinced about boldface captions, though.
