General ⇒ Placing text and a graphic dead center on a page

[tripwire45]

I can center text using /centering or alternately:

Code: Select all

\begin{center}
Some stuff
\end{center}

but I need to center a three-line block of text dead center in a page...both horizontally and vertically. Is there a way to do this in percentages rather than absolute values? Also, I need to place a logo dead center on a page (the final page of a document). I imagine it's a similar task, but perhaps not. The image can't "float" since I don't want it to be "pushed around" just because I edit another page of the document.

Sorry for the pesky questions. I've really been working Google hard today, but alas, it doesn't always produce the answers I need (however, it has saved this forum from quite a few more questions, so it's not a total loss).

Hi Trip,

try the vertical spacing with \vspace*{\fill}:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,10pt]{article}
\begin{document}
\vspace*{\fill}
\begingroup
\centering
one

two

three

\endgroup
\vspace*{\fill}
\end{document}

Works great. Thanks. I'll have to wait until I'm at work tomorrow to test it out with the document's logo.

Just wanted to get back to you, Stefan. It works great with both text and graphics. Thanks for the tip.
