Thank you! It works, though it is strange that I had to change the first number to 9 to get a fontsize between script and footnote.

It works! Thanks a lot.

I made a small change of the code. Instead of \renewcommand, I use \newcommand. Otherwise it works like a charm.

I have one more question though, out of curiosity, what is the difference between \renewcommand{\footnotemargin}{0.00001pt} and \renewcommand{\footnotemargin ...

Hello,
Is there a way to fine tune font size other than using \scriptsize and \footnotesize, etc.? I ask this because it appears that the footnote size in Microsoft word appears right between \scriptsize and \footnotesize in Latex. Thanks.

Hello,

could somebody please help me to get the following formatting for
footnotes (as required by the publisher):

1. The footnote text should start at a fixed place relative to the
left margin (equivalent to inserting a tab in MS Word). Thus the space
following the number 10 should be smaller ...

Thanks, I'll try it out. So far I ended up not using the special command \title at all. Just create a section \begin{center} ... \end{center} to contain the title/author. It is ugly but it at least works.

I have one more question though. Is there a way to fine tune font size other than using ...

I tried it, but changing the value of the \vskip command does nothing.

Here are some codes, just plain ones. Thanks.

\documentclass[12pt]{article}

............

\title{sometitle}
\author{me}
\maketitle

Is it possible to do that by changing the top margin for just this page? What's the best way to change margins for just one page? Thanks.

thanks for your reply, but is there an easier way since I only need to change the amount of space?

Hi,
In the title page, there is a lot of space between the title and the top margin. How can I reduce it? Thank you very much.
