amsrefsbibliographiesfontsize
I am using BibTeX with the amsrefs package to create a bibliography. The output of the bibliography looks to be of a slightly smaller font size that that of the ambient document, and it's imperative that these font sizes be equal. I have already tried
{\normalsize\bibliography{mybib}}
to no avail. Can anyone please steer me in the right direction? Thanks!
amsref offers the eprint field that you can use inside of, for example, the article entry type to introduce some web page. Another possibility is to define a fresh new bib entry type (which approach to use will depend on the specific intended ussage). In the following example code I illustrate both approaches.
I defined a new bib entry type (called webpage) using \BibSpec; this type recognizes the fields author, title, year, myurl and note. The new field myurl calls \myurl which was defined simply to typeset its argument using the \url command from the url package.
\documentclass{amsart}
\usepackage[lite]{amsrefs}
\usepackage{url}
\DefineSimpleKey{bib}{myurl}
\newcommand\myurl[1]{\url{#1}}
\BibSpec{webpage}{%
+{}{\PrintAuthors} {author}
+{,}{ \textit} {title}
+{}{ \parenthesize} {date}
+{,}{ \myurl} {myurl}
+{,}{ } {note}
+{.}{ } {transition}
}
\begin{document}
\title{The Title}
\author{The Author}

There are just four relevant lengths for the horizontal setting.
At 11pt
\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{book}
\typeout{tw: \the\textwidth}
\typeout{os: \the\oddsidemargin}
\typeout{es: \the\evensidemargin}
\typeout{mw: \the\marginparwidth}
\begin{document}
zzz
\end{document}
produces
tw: 360.0pt
os: 22.0pt
es: 70.0pt
mw: 106.0pt
If you change to 12pt you get
tw: 390.0pt
os: 10.0pt
es: 52.0pt
mw: 88.0pt
but you want the 11pt widths so set them back:
\documentclass[12pt,a4paper]{book}
\setlength{\textwidth}{360pt}
\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{22pt}
\setlength{\evensidemargin}{70pt}
\setlength{\marginparwidth}{106pt}
\typeout{tw: \the\textwidth}
\typeout{os: \the\oddsidemargin}
\typeout{es: \the\evensidemargin}
\typeout{mw: \the\marginparwidth}
\begin{document}
zzz
\end{document}

The font is controlled by the
\biblistfontcommand; simply redefine this macro in your preamble (to change the default\footnotesize) by adding the following lines:
