Vikas,


You want to play around with the \setbeamerfont com= mand.


Check out, in particular, section 18.3.3 entitled "= ;Setting Beamer's Fonts"
- You can direct commands for t= he whole document at various "parts" of the Beamer doc
--- \setbeamerfont {title}{size=3D\large} (or \LARGE or \Huge, for example)=
--- \setbeamerfont {frametitle}
--- Scan the manual fo= r all the part names you can fiddle with but for sure these are frametitle = (title on each slide), title (title on the first slide), author (author'= ;s name on first slide), footer/header (the stuff at the bottom/top of each= slide)... and probably subtitle? I forget all of them and haven't foun= d a great concise list yet...

- You can also set up custom font names like this from = page 199
/--------
| \setbeamerfont{parent A}{size= =3D\large}
| \setbeamerfont{parent B}{series=3D\bfseries}
| \setbeamerfont{child}{parent=3D{parent A, parent B},size=3D\small}
<= div>| \normalfont
| This text is in a normal font.
| \u= sebeamerfont{parent A}
| This text is large.
| \usebeam= erfont{parent B}
| This text is large and bold.
| \usebeamerfont{parent B}
| This text is still large and bold.
| \usebeamerfont*{pa= rent B}
| This text is only bold, but not large.
| \use= beamerfont{child}
| This text is small and bold.
\---------

Also, see secion 18.2.1 entitled "Choosing a Fo= nt Size for Normal Text"
- Essentially you set body text via= \documentclass[size-goes-here(e.g. 8pt, 11pt, etc.] ]{beamer}

Lastly, here's a handy page with LaTeX font sizes:= =A0http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Useful_Size_Commands
