[Tex/LaTex] How to enlarge title font size of nomenclature

fontsizenomenclaturetable of contents

I use these codes (in preamble):

\usepackage{tocloft}
\renewcommand{\cfttoctitlefont}{\LARGE\bfseries}

That used for customize the font size of "Table of Content" to be LARGE (about 18pt). So that it will be same size as chapter title. I already used the same method for List of Figure and List of Table.

\cftloftitlefont
\cftlottitlefont

Now, I want to apply the same effect to Nomenclature, but I could not find the right code. Anyone know about it?

The Nomenclature is set as a regular chapter; tocloft doesn't handle other ad-hoc "List of.."s with specialized commands like \cft...titlefont. So, you can patch the chapter command momentarily or just try {\renewcommand{\Huge}{\LARGE}\printnomenclature} (note the grouping around the entire command).

\Huge is the regular size of the chapter titles (in the standard document classes), which is set in bold by default.

The error you are getting comes from loading the tocloft and subfigure packages simultaneously, as the following example swhows:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tocloft}
\usepackage{subfigure}

\begin{document}

test

\end{document}

As soon as one processes this document, the following error shows up:

! LaTeX Error: Command \c@lofdepth already defined.
               Or name \end... illegal, see p.192 of the manual.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
 ...                                              

l.124 \newcounter{lofdepth}

The problem is that both packages define the counters lofdepth and lotdepth. To prevent the error, simply load tocloft with the subfigure option; i.e., load the packages like this:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[subfigure]{tocloft} 
\usepackage{subfigure} 

\begin{document}

test

\end{document}

By the way, sufigure is an obsolete package and shouldn't be used anymore; subfig or subcaption are valid alternatives

The current version is TeXLive 2013.
