Hi Becky,
There are a series of sizes that can be used within a LaTeX document.
See:
http://www-h.eng.cam.ac.uk/help/tpl/textprocessing/teTeX/latex/latex2e-html…
for a list.
wrapping your table in
{\small
}
or
{\footnotesize
}
or one of the other size commands should do the trick.
As an example here is one of the tables of the Treisman results from
the lecture notes:
\begin{table}
\begin{center}
{\tiny
\begin{tabular}[h]{lccccc}
\hline\hline
& (1) & (2) & (3) & (4) \\
\hline \\
Common Law & -0.36 & -0.01 & -0.07 & -0.08 \\
& (0.95)&(0.61) &(0.60) &(0.67) \\
British Colony or UK &-1.25 &-1.08 &-0.98 &-0.82 \\
&(0.81) &(0.54) &(0.53) &(0.58) \\
Never Colony & -1.54 & -0.12 & -0.02 &-0.14 \\
&(0.63) &(0.43) &(0.43) &(0.44) \\
\% Protestant & -0.04 &-0.03 &-0.03 &-0.03 \\
&(0.01) &(0.01) &(0.01) &(0.01) \\

&(0.01) &(0.01) &(0.01) &(0.01) \\
log GDP per capita & &-3.94 & -3.83 &-3.64 \\
& &(0.45) &(0.51) &(0.49) \\

Constant & 5.29 &20.28 & 20.0 & 19.7 \\
& (0.49)&(1.79 &(1.96) & (1.85)\\
\hline
$n$ & 64 & 64 & 64 & 62 \\
$R^2$ & 0.55 & 0.82 & 0.85 & 0.85 \\
\hline\hline
\end{tabular}
}
\end{center}
\caption{{\tiny Results from Treisman's OLS Analysis of Perceived
Corruption (1998 Transparency Internation
Scores).}}\label{TreiTab3}
\end{table}
Hope this helps.
Best,
Kevin

How can I change it? What are my options? I have a
table that does not
fit, so I wanted to make the font smaller....
I consulted Not-so-short and tried the:
\small
etc commands and they didn't work.
Any ideas?
Thanks! Becky :)
