Page Layout ⇒ Put some Stuff into the Page Margin

[luisnovo]

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to write a note like in the 2nd page of this document (left side on the bottom):

http://www.iso-chemie.co.uk/material/pr ... strips.pdf

Can anyone help me?!

Thank you!

Is this note going to appear only on a certain page or possibly on all pages of your document?

Possibly on all pages.

Thank you for answering!

The eso-pic package allows to add content to every page at arbitrary places. Just think of the whole page as a usual picture environment. The example below shows a basic approach.

Code: Select all

% !TeX program = pdflatex
\documentclass[11pt,english]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{babel}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{eso-pic}
\usepackage{blindtext}

\AddToShipoutPicture{
  \AtPageLowerLeft{
    \put(40,40){
      \tiny%
      \rotatebox[origin=l]{90}{Your Note}%
    }
  }
}

\begin{document}
  \blinddocument
\end{document}

If you need further adjustments or modifications, feel free to ask.

Please note that the packages babel (along with its global language option) and blindtext are not part of the solution. They have only been used to create a dummy document with several pages for a demonstration of the concept.

Well, it works. Very nice, I will use it on my CV template for copyright notice.

Thank you very much!

Yours,
