<title>UK TeX FAQ -- question label theoremfmt</title>
</head><body>
<h3>Theorem bodies printed in a roman font</h3>
<p/>If you want to take advantage of the powerful <code>\</code><code>newtheorem</code> command
without the constraint that the contents of the theorem is in a sloped
font (for example, you may want to use it to create remarks, examples, proofs,
...) then you can use the AMSLaTeX <i>amsthm</i> package
(which now supersedes the <i>theorem</i> package previously
recommended in these answers).
Alternatively, the following sets up an environment
<code>remark</code> whose content is in the default roman font.
<blockquote>

<pre>
\newtheorem{preremark}{Remark}
\newenvironment{remark}%
  {\begin{preremark}\upshape}{\end{preremark}}
</pre>
</blockquote><p>
The <i>ntheorem</i> package provides control of the fonts used by
theorems, directly.
