I use 

\titleformat{\section}{\normalfont\bfseries\color{blue}}{\thesection}{0.5em}{}

to set the section title heading as bold font, but i found the title scale is not look good, i would like to set scale =0.9 or smaller only on title heading, how could i do that? my latex engine is xelatex. thanks for the help.

MWE:

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper,oneside]{book}

\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} 
\usepackage{graphicx} 
\usepackage{titlesec} 

\titleformat{\part}{\normalfont\bfseries\color{black}}{\makebox[2em] {\thepart}}{0.5em}{} 
\titleformat{\chapter}{\normalfont\bfseries\color{red}}{\thechapter}{0.5em}{} 

\usepackage{graphicx} 

\begin{document} 

This line is Latin Modern font\\ 
This line is Latin Modern font\\ 
\bfseries{This line is Latin Modern font bold} 

\end{document}

  • As you are using xelatex, you could use https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/444643/36296 to get a semibold font – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Mar 07 '19 at 08:54
  • Unrelated to the problem: don't load the same package multiple times and don't use // for line breaks, better leave an empty line. Also `\bfseries` does not take an argument, so it should be `{\bfseries your text}` and not `\bfseries{...}` – samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz Mar 07 '19 at 08:55
