[Tex/LaTex] How to make math symbols like \prod smaller

math-modesymbols

I know this is simple, but I can't seem to find the correct code.
If I have
$d \prod$
how can I make the height of the \prod symbol equal to that of d?

Thanks!

Probably you are looking for the greek letter Π, which can be obtained with \Pi.

\documentclass{article}

\begin{document}
  $d\;\Pi$
\end{document}

For integral symbols try \usepackage{bigints}. With the amsmath package, you can change the size of equations with the standard LaTeX resizing commands. Example

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\begin{document}
Normal size:
\[
  \sum_{i=0}^n\int_{a_i}^{b_i}f(x)
\]
Large size:
{\large
\[
  \sum_{i=0}^n\int_{a_i}^{b_i}f(x)
\]}
$\sum\int_a^b f(x)$ is normal size and {\huge$\sum\int_a^b f(x)$} is huge size.
\end{document}

[Tex/LaTex] find character codes to make the own “big symbols”

there's a "canned" routine called testfont. use it with plain tex:

tex testfont

it will walk you through what it wants to test. the first question is what font you want. the comprehensive symbols list should show you what fonts the asterisk is in (i'm pretty sure there's one in cmsy10). then you tell it what to do. the usual directive is

\table\bye

if you want to test another font, then respond \table\vfill\eject\init and the "what font" question will come up again. you can preview the result, or print it out for reference. the indices on the top/bottom/sides of the table will identify the addresses of the cells, which is what the last argument of \DeclareMathSymbol wants.
