I recall seeing this question posted before but I have lost the reply.
I would like to change the default size (in report.sty) of the
chapter, section, subsection etc headings in my document. Unfortunately
my University thesis regulations don't like the large bold headers and
want them a lot smaller.

I've tried looking in the rep12,sty file and making some adjustments,
but it doesn't want to cooperate!
 
Please could someone help me with this simple but frustrating problem.

Also, when I run my version of dvips (dvilaser/ps IBM-PC version 3.0.0)
it crashes and says that it cant find the file "dvips.fnt". Does anyone
know where I can get hold of a copy of this file?
P.S. I am using a pc, but I do have access to latex on the UNIX mainframe
as well as ftp etc.
     
Thanks again,
