How can I reduce the white space above the chapter heading?
How can I reduce the space between the heading and the text?
I want to be able to do this for selected chapters only, or after a given chapter (I want normal spacing from the Introduction chapter and outwards, but before that I want reduced spacing).
MWE:
\documentclass[b5paper, 11pt, twoside, openright]{report}
\usepackage{titlesec}
\begin{document}
\chapter*{Abstract}
This chapter should have less spacing
\chapter*{Preface}
This chapter should have less spacing
\tableofcontents %Less spacing
\listoffigures %Less spacing
\listoftables %Less spacing
\chapter*{Glossary}
Less spacing
\chapter{Introduction}
From this chapter, I want normal spacing
\end{document}

this answer directly modifies the command from
report.cls
that formats the headings of unnumbered chapters.
