Placing frontmatter before the ToC

Postby kerryjcox » Wed Aug 14, 2024 11:53 pm

I am working with a heavily edited version of the latest eisvogel.tex template. It has been great for everything I needed so far.

However, I have some legalese that I need to add before the Table of Contents and I cannot identify where I would place the legal jargon before the ToC.

Here is my MWE for the module.md file I am using. I convert the module.md to a PDF file using pandoc. This preamble generates a ToC immediately after the title page. The legalese you see here then follows the ToC. I would like to have the legal jargon first and then the ToC.

Looking through the eisvogel.tex file, I cannot see where I can place the ToC after this legal jargon.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
