In article <1990Feb21.152216.12541@granite.cr.bull.com>, mandel@granite (Mark Mandel) writes: `I have to get footers on every page, including chapter-initial pages, `of a largish (>100pp.) document that I have just about completed in `LaTeX. It would be sufficient for all of them to be identical -- it's `a piece of boilerplate, 4 words. I'm using book style, and I don't `know Plain TeX. Our local guru has given me some advice, but he too `is not familiar enough with Plain TeX to help me through this `situation. The weirdest part is that it was working for a while, `though not on first pages of chapters. Naturally, I'm not aware of `anything in the footer code changing interim. ` LaTeX switches to pagestyle plain on first pages of chapters. You can give a \thispagestyle command on each chapter to change that. Alternatively you can use my fancyheadings.sty which gives you very much freedom to specify your headers and footers with a few simple commands. Get it from the clarkson archive or from ours: ftp from sol.cs.ruu.nl [131.211.80.5], directory pub/TEX/latexstyle, or request from mail-server@cs.ruu.nl (send a HELP message first), The files are fancyheadings.doc and fancyheadings.sty. -- Piet* van Oostrum, Dept of Computer Science, Utrecht University, Padualaan 14, P.O.
