Stack Exchange network consists of 182 Q&A communities including Stack Overflow , the largest, most trusted online community for developers to learn, share their knowledge, and build their careers.

TeX - LaTeX Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for users of TeX, LaTeX, ConTeXt, and related typesetting systems. It only takes a minute to sign up.
Connect and share knowledge within a single location that is structured and easy to search.
Which package must you include to use the italics command \textit{} ?
More generally, if I find a command I would like to use (in a tutorial, for example), how can I easily identify which package I must include to use the command?
\textit, \textrm, \textbf and \textsf are the primitive commands in LaTeX, these tags never expect any packages, if you need any text should be in bold with italic face, then should use the tag as \textbf{\textit{...}} ... Hope this may helpful to you...

That’s why many users don’t know how to italicize a text in a document processor like LaTeX. If you also face the same issue, then please read this tutorial. This tutorial teaches you how to write italic text in LaTeX.
Let’s start with a simple example of writing an italic text using \textit{} source code as shown in the following:
Similarly, you can use the \emph{} source code to emphasize a text in the document as follows:
You can bold and italicize a text together using textbf{} and textit{} or emph{} source codes with a text as follows:
Italicizing a text can be useful to emphasize a sentence or specific text in a technical or non-technical document. We have provided information on two different methods for italicizing a text. LaTeX also allows you to bold and italicize a text all together using \textbf{} and \textit{} source codes. If this tutorial helped you, visit Linux Hint for more articles like this.

If you want to put a small piece of text in a specific type style, you can do
it as follows:
If you want to put larger amounts of text into these type styles, you can use
\begin and \end commands; i.e.:
If you want to be able to "stack" type styles (bold and italic, etc), then you need to use slightly different commands:
Not all combinations of styles will have a font associated with them.

Simple text formatting helps to highlight important concepts within a document and make it more readable. Using italics, bold or underlined words can change the perception of the reader.

In this article three basic text formatting tools will be explained: italics, bold and underline. Let's begin with an example:

The following graphic shows the output of this LaTeX code—the document preamble is added automatically by the Overleaf link:

As you can see, there are three basic commands and they can be nested to get combined effects.

Note: The original text-formatting commands from plain TeX, \it (italicize) and \bf (bold face) will still work in a LaTeX document but their use is discouraged and not recommended because they don't preserve previous styles. For example, when using those old commands you can't apply both italics and bold at the same time.

To make a text italic is straightforward, use the \emph or \textit command:

The following graphic shows the output of this LaTeX code—the document preamble is added automatically by the Overleaf link:

To make a text bold use \textbf command:

The following graphic shows the output of this LaTeX code—the document preamble is added automatically by the Overleaf link:

To underline text use the \underline command:

The following graphic shows the output of this LaTeX code—the document preamble is added automatically by the Overleaf link:

Text can be emphasized using the \emph command. Sometimes the \emph command behaves just as \textit , but is not exactly the same:

The following graphic shows the output of this LaTeX code—the document preamble is added automatically by the Overleaf link:

What the \emph command actually does with its argument depends on the context—inside normal text the emphasized text is italicized, but this behaviour is reversed if used inside an italicized text—see example above. Moreover, some packages, e.g. Beamer , change the behaviour of the \emph command.

The following example collects the various code fragments contained in this article so that you can open them all together in Overleaf.
