> is it possible to change the font size of marginal notes
I use the following code in my preamble so I can use a smaller font,
sans serif to distinguish it further from the main body of text and
ragged right because I think a very narrow column can look odd
justified. In this case it was blue too.
\let\oldmarginpar\marginpar
\renewcommand\marginpar[1]
{\-\oldmarginpar[\color{blue}\sffamily\raggedleft\scriptsize #1]%
{\color{blue}\sffamily\raggedright\scriptsize #1}}
built in font sizes
\tiny
\scriptsize
\footnotesize
\small
\normalsize
\large
\Large
\LARGE
\huge
\Huge
