General ⇒ How to create desired blank space

[pban92]

I am trying to make a single page 'Acknowledgment' with three to four lines. I want the word - Acknowledgment to be centered but 10 cm below from the top of the page. What should be the syntax?

Please help.

Thanks!

This is quite simple. After the contents of the preceding page you insert the desired vertical space followed by your acknowledgements.

Code: Select all

...
\newpage
\vspace*{8cm}
\begin{center}
  \Large
  Acknowledgements
\end{center}
The thanks to the people and your appreciations are placed here.
...
\newpage

I already took into account that there is a top margin. So there's a little less vertical space than 10cm needed. Moreover, the center environment produces space above and below its contents.
