Re: Changing between single and double spacing

Thanks for the help. I'm sure your suggestions would work in most cases. Unfortunately, this was a bit trickier. I finally found the answer lies in using a \makeatletter .... \makeatother string within the title page code.

Changing between single and double spacing

Hi,

I am modifying files provided by Purdue (Mark Senn) to prepare my MSU thesis. I need the title page to be single spaced, but it is currently double. Adding a \renewcommand*{\baselinestretch}{1.0} into the title page code doesn't change anything.

Hope this is everything you need to help me!

Re: PDFpages and Hyperref

Sorry for the confusion. I'm actually trying to add a 'supplementary bibliography' which is 5 pages long and contains references for certain figures. I know, bibtex makes bibliographies...but my boss is difficult and insisted this bibliography be prepared in word. Rather than having to convert to ...
