Personalize style of book part-page

Post by jvm »

Hi,

I'm currently writing my thesis in LaTeX bookformat. Now I would like to have a background-image or, even better, personalize my part-page. With part-page I mean the page which says Part X - parttitle.

I tried the \AddToShipoutPicture trick, but this also adds a background image to the blankpage following the part-page.

Is their a quick way to do this?

Thanks in advance

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
