Page Layout ⇒ Header Layout help

[nkal]

Hello,

I had asked this question as part of another post and this issue got lost among the list of other problems I had. So, I am bringing it up as a new post.

I am having a problem with adding an image to the header. I am using document class 'report' and I need to add an image in the left part of the header. I am currently using this:

Code: Select all

\pagestyle{fancy}
\lhead{\includegraphics[323pt,229pt][466pt,314pt]{Header_image.eps}}
\rhead{\parbox{7.5in}{\fontsize{11pt}{0pt}\fontfamily{phv}\selectfont{\hspace{3.81in}{
  \textbf{TRL - 2 Report}}} }}

With this, the image appears only on a few pages of the report: the title page, the last page and the page which is not a 'chapter page'. The table of contents, list of figures, list of tables, and all the chapter title pages do not get this header. Plus, the image placement is weird. I get a lot of white space under the image (like in a figure) and so the rhead is displaced vertically down and both image and rhead are not at the same height.

I have been breaking my head over this for days, any help is welcome!

Cheers,
Nkal

That's the reason why you should never mix up different topics in one thread.


For an adequate problem description and in order to avoid guesses and random shots please prepare a proper minimal example that contains all necessary but only relevant information in form of code.

Hi there,

I could resolve most of the things and have a much simpler question to ask now. How do I change the attributes of the following pages so that the generic header and footer apply to them:

1. table of contents page
2. List to figures page
3. List of tables page
4. First page of every chapter.

Here is the minimal example. […]

Read Section 7 of the fancyhdr manual. And please do not call an example minimal which isn't minimal at all. This could irritate others (especially beginners).

For building a proper minimal example you should take a look at some useful packages.

• blindtext
• (kant)lipsum
• mwe

Thank you for the tip. I removed the code from the post to avoid irritating others.

You should not evade building a proper minimal example. That isn't helpful either. But now you can continue with this:

I forgot to mention in the last post that I could find a solution to the problem by redefining \fancypagestyle{plain}.

Thank you for your help!
