[Tex/LaTex] Changing the font size with \emph

emphasisfontsize

In the .tex document I created, the emphasis command \emph{text} is frequently used (note that I use \documentclass{llncs} ). However, the .pdf preview shows the emphasized text as smaller that the plain text. What would be the way to change the font size for the text in \emph{text}. I would be good if one is able to set the option at the beginning, and not change every occurrence of \emph{}.

You could use

\let\oldemph\emph
\renewcommand\emph[1]{{\huge\oldemph{#1}}}

For future reference (for other users), the llncs documentclass is available here

\documentclass{llncs}

\let\oldemph\emph
\renewcommand\emph[1]{{\huge\oldemph{#1}}}

\begin{document}

Here is some \emph{emphasized} text

\end{document}
