[Tex/LaTex] Figures’ legend is bold. Can I have it not bold in the list of figures

boldtable of contents

The legends of my figures are written in bold, but I don't want the list of tables to have the titles in bold. Any suggestion?

Best Answer

You can use the caption package to customize the captions, not affecting the entries of the corresponding list:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[font=bf]{caption}

\begin{document}
\listoftables

\begin{table}[!ht]
  \centering
  \caption{a test caption}
  \label{tab:test}
\end{table}

\end{document}

I'd guess

\renewcommand\cftloftitlefont{\huge\bfseries}

[Tex/LaTex] Bold Captions in figure and tables but not on the list of tables and figures

You can give three option for fonts:

font = <options> → affects whole caption
labelfont = <options> → affects only the caption label and separator and
textfont = <options> → affects only the caption text

What you need is font = bf (instead of labelfont=bf) in

\usepackage[labelsep=newline,% line break after label
   justification=centering,
   singlelinecheck=off, font=bf]{caption}

Code:
