Page Layout ⇒ Different Header Sizes

[jjjessen]

Dear community,

I'm struggling with the page layout of my document. I need to format a letter with a header for the first page (logo, address field etc.) and a different header for the following pages. The header section for the first page is required to have height=6cm and 4cm for the next pages.

There's a custom header for the first page, and a common header for the following pages. I can't figure out how the geometry options should be set so I get a different sized header for my two pages. I've provided an example of what I'm trying to achieve. Also the header on the first page doesn't show all the required content.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,twoside]{report}
\usepackage[
  paper=a4paper,
  head=6cm,
  bottom=2cm,
  left=2.2cm,
  right=2.2cm
]{geometry}
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{lipsum}

%Clear header and footer
\fancyhf{}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
\renewcommand{\footrulewidth}{0pt}
\fancyfoot[C]{Side: \thepage}

\fancypagestyle{common}{%
  \fancyhf{}
  \rhead{
    \begin{tabular}{r}
      common text 1 \\
      common text 2
    \end{tabular}
  }
  \fancyfoot[C]{Side: \thepage}
}

\fancypagestyle{firstpage}{
  \fancyhf{}
  \fancyhead[R]{
    \begin{tabular}{r}
      text1:\\
      text2\\
      phone\\
      Fax nr.:\\
      \\
      bla bla\\	 
      more text\\
      final text\\
    \end{tabular}
  }
  \fancyhead[L]{
    \begin{tabular}{l}
      \includegraphics[height=1.1cm]{translogo}\\
      \\
      \\
      Test1\\
      Address1\\
      Zip and city
    \end{tabular}
  }
  \fancyfoot[C]{Side: \thepage}
}

\begin{document}

\pagestyle{firstpage}
\lipsum
\newpage
\pagestyle{common}
\newgeometry{head=4cm, bottom=2cm, left=2.2cm, right=2.2cm}
\lipsum

\end{document}

Any help is much appreciated.


Best,
Ja
