Hello All
I want an alternative for MS Word for the creation of the documents
within our company. The only restriction is that it should be able to do
same as Word but better. So I have been trying in LyX to get the same
page layout as in Word. It seems that I have everything except that i
can't get the title to appear in the footer. I have put this in the
preamble:
\footskip2cm
\fancyhf{}
\lfoot{\begin{minipage}{4cm} \scriptsize \...@title \end{minipage}}
\rfoot{\begin{minipage}{5cm}\small \copyright This piece of text i want in
the right footer.\end{minipage}}
This doesn't work the way I would like. I don't get an error and I don't
get a title in the footer. If I replace \...@title by the actual text this
text does appear in the footer. the Rightfooter is fine though. Could
someone tell me if I am doing something wrong and if so what. Thanks in
advance.
regards
Bart
Hi,
It took me a while since I don't really know LaTeX, and hit the
limitation of most search engines (they skip \ and @ characters, so you
cannot do any search on e.g. "\...@title"), but I could get to a solution...
replace the line
\lfoot{\begin{minipage}{4cm} \scriptsize \...@title \end{minipage}}
by this ugly thing
\let\Oldtitle\title
\renewcommand{\title}[1]{\lfoot{\begin{minipage}{4cm} \scriptsize
{#1}\end{minipage}}\Oldtitle{#1}}
There is probably a better way to do it, but I git it working, so I'll
let other people show the proper way ;-)
Best regards,
Olivier
