Keywords: footer header Message-ID: <1044@keele.keele.ac.uk> Date: 2 Apr 91 12:55:21 GMT Organization: University of Keele, England Lines: 16 Does anyone know a way of getting a *different* footer, or header, printed on each page in LaTeX depending on the page number? This is going to be "Keep going" on Page 1, "There's more" on Page 2 and "Read my lips" on Page 3, etc, just as a gimmick. I've read the threepart.sty and fancyheadings.sty files which allow an odd/even setup but I really need something that says "footer page 1 = bla bla bla". I thought it might be done by creating an array of text out of which I extract the footer for each page using \thepage to index in. Is this sort of thing possible in LaTeX? any help much appreciated, gerry -- gerry pratt -- workstation support -- university of keele email: gerry@seq1.keele.ac.uk * tel: 0782 621111 x 3290 "these opinions are mine, mine, mine....ALL MINE I TELL YOU!"
