The Toolbar title textsize gets decreased when I change orientation from portrait to landscape and gets reset when I change back to portrait. The activity in which this happens extends ActionBarActivity
which uses getSupportActionBar()
.

I think it's a known issue. Asked here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/28486858/appcompat-toolbar-font-size-inconsistent-in-portrait-vs-landscape – Pooja Mar 16 '15 at 09:03

@Pooja My other activities don't face this issue. – isudansh Mar 16 '15 at 14:16

1That is working as intended. The landscape toolbar is shorter, so the text size is smaller. – alanv Mar 17 '15 at 20:55

Use the below solution:
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/main_toolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
android:background="?attr/colorPrimary"
app:titleTextAppearance="@style/ToolbarTitle"
android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Dark.ActionBar"
app:popupTheme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light" />
Toolbar Style:
<style name="ToolbarTitle" parent="@style/TextAppearance.Widget.AppCompat.Toolbar.Title">
<item name="android:textSize">20sp</item>
</style>

I think this problem exists in android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar. Even I faced the same issue. But to maintain text size consistency I used the following method.
<style name="ToolbarText" parent="@style/TextAppearance.Widget.AppCompat.Toolbar.Title">
<item name="android:textSize">17sp</item>
</style>
And use this style for toolbar.
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
....
app:titleTextAppearance="@style/ToolbarText" />

You can resize from code is best, you can't put 17sp,18sp.... 40sp.... in a future your code will deprecated ;) – Dec 16 '15 at 11:11
