Page Layout ⇒ Changing Header/Footers Using Afterpage

I am quite busy right now, but as soon as I can I'll take a look at your code. For the moment, regarding this:

...but would the distribution make any difference? TeTex vs TexLive and so forth?

It depends; as long as you keep a supported distribution (MiKTeX (for Windows), TeX Live (mainly for Linux) and some others) and keep it updated, there should be no difference. However, teTeX has been unsupported for some years now (see this thread: teTeX now obsolete), so if you are still using it, you should consider switching to TeX Live.

Hi,

I apologise for the obvious double post. I did a test using your previous code (now that it is complete) and I could reproduce the problem that you mentioned. The solution is quite simple: at the end of your document leave a blank line just between the last line of text and the \end{document} command; i.e. instead of

Code: Select all

...
Chemical analysis performed according to ASTM EXXXX-YY, E1XXXX-YY\newline (modified) and EXXXX-YY(YYYY).
\end{document}

use

Code: Select all

...
Chemical analysis performed according to ASTM EXXXX-YY, E1XXXX-YY\newline (modified) and EXXXX-YY(YYYY).

\end{document}

You could edit the former one (just a suggestion).

Thanks for the help, I'd been struggling with that for a little while now. I'm not sure whether to feel glad it's such a simple fix, or foolish that in all my playing with pagebreak locations, paragraph sizing etc I never tried inserting newlines after the text. Both I guess.

There's still a case of there being only one line of text on the second page where inserting the newline character doesn't correct the problem, but I think I can get around that with an ifthenelse statement now that I know how to correct it. Again, much appreciated.
