If the option page
is provided to the appendix
package, it adds a page (the \appendixpage
) stating
Appendices
before the actual start of the appendices. The name "Appendices" is given by \appendixpagename
. From the package documentation:
\newcommand{\@chap@pppage}{%
\clear@ppage
\thispagestyle{plain}%
\if@twocolumn\onecolumn\@tempswatrue\else\@tempswafalse\fi
\null\vfil
\markboth{}{}%
{\centering
\interlinepenalty \@M
\normalfont
\Huge \bfseries \appendixpagename\par}%
}
It clearly uses \normalfont
for the font of the \appendixpagename
but I want to use \sffamily
instead. How to achieve that?
Best Answer
Changing the
\appendixpagename
can be done on multiple ways:Either use a
\let\appendixpagenameorig\appendixname
and refer to the old definition or use\xpretocmd
, see the different versions below:or with
\xpretocmd
The 2nd way is shorter, but requires an extra package.
