Title Page for each Chapter

Post by PerisH »

Hi all!

I'm new here, so ... I have a problem with my end course project. I have to make a title on each chapter. For a better explanation, i give an example:
  • Title page (I use \include{file.tex})
  • New title for Table of Contents (same as before)
  • Table of Contents
  • New title (\include{title_chapter_one.tex})
  • Chapter 1 (with \include{chapter_one.tex})
  • New title (\include{title_cahpter_two.tex})
  • Chapter 2 (\include{chapter_two.tex})
and so on.

My problem is in that way the document loses the numbering, Is there anyway to do that?

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Hi!

it depends on what you are doing here:

Code: Select all

New title (\include{title_chapter_two.tex})
What code is in this title file? Don's use \maketitle or a titlepage environment there.

Well, I'm using memoir class for my paper, because I need a diferent style for the chapter's head and headers and footers. (I also have problems with that)
I'm using \begin{titlingpage} environment in the Newtitle's page.

The memoir manual says, regarding titlingpage:
The titlingpage pagestyle is used, and at the end it starts another ordinary page numbered one. The titlingpage pagestyle is initially defined to be the same as the empty pagestyle.
So just don't use this environment. You could create your own environment, which starts a new page, uses the pagestyle you want, uses \centering and \vfill for centering a title vertically and horizontally or does any other positioning, then \cleardoublepage.
