I am using the exam class, how do I bold the numbering?

And one more question, how do I change the font size to 14 pt or 16 pt in the exam class?

  • welcome to TeX.se. First question is unclear for second try \usepackage[14pt]{extsizes} or \usepackage[17pt]{extsizes} – touhami Sep 13 '16 at 12:03
  • for the numbering of questions, you might be interested in the macro \renewcommand{\thequestion}{\bfseries\arabic{question}} – Runar Sep 13 '16 at 13:50
  • Thanks for the numbering tip. But how do I change the . to )? and how do I make more white space between the numbering and the paragraph? – Kelvin Lau Sep 15 '16 at 09:40

A table of standard LaTeX font sizes can be found here, using \large or \Large. If you want specific sizes by point (.e.g., 14 pt) try the package suggested in the comments to your question.

For the spacing question you pose in the comments, you should ask a separate question providing more detail about what you are looking for. You should also include a minimum working example that shows what you have tried so far. Otherwise, you are unlikely to get a response. 

\documentclass[12pt]{exam}

\renewcommand\questionlabel{\thequestion)} %replace period with parenthesis
\renewcommand{\thequestion}{\bfseries\large\arabic{question}}

\begin{document}

\question
Here is the first question.


\question
Here is the second question.
