Hi Toby,
I guess the correct way (whatever that means) would be to redefine the
\maketitle (or [EMAIL PROTECTED], as I've seem sometimes -- don't know the
difference) macro. It's quite easy if you know some LaTeX (from head,
might contain typos):
\renewcommand{\maketitle}{%
\begin{titlepage}%
\vspace*{5cm}%
\begin{centering}%
{\Huge [EMAIL PROTECTED]
\vspace{3cm}%
{large written at MyWork\ldots\par}%
\vspace{2cm}%
{\large [EMAIL PROTECTED]
{\small [EMAIL PROTECTED]
\end{centering}%
\end{titlepage}
}
Put this in the preamble, and you can use the standard latex paragraph
styles (author, date, title,...) for most of the work, so it would
actually be reusable. (We'll see what the LaTeX experts on the list say
to this, I am definitely none...)
A more practical way (whatever that now means...) would be do design the
titlepage with something like scribus or maybe openoffice.org and create
a eps file from that. Be sure then to use the same fonts (usually
postscript fonts like palatino or times) for the titlepage as you use
for your document (If you're using computer modern fonts you could use
xfig I think, but if that's comforatble I'm not sure)
Have fun,
Karsten
