Page Layout ⇒ Balancing the layout automatically on the cover

[arobase]

I'm creating the cover of a memoir which has three parts : top, center and bottom. What set of commands / package can take care of placing them automatically such as the whole height of the page is used, as opposed to manually setting the distance between each pair of paragraphs?

Code: Select all

\usepackage{memoir}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
\begin{document}
\begingroup \noindent
The top.

\vspace{100pt} % Can Latex do that for me?

The center.

\vspace{100pt} % Can Latex do that for me?

The bottom.

\endgroup
\clearpage
\end{document}

Thanks.

Hi,

you could use \vfill for this. Just insert this command at both places instead of \vspace{100pt}, then the space is filled and equally stretched so that the page is completely filled.

Btw. very good that you tried to post a minimal example! Just \documentclass{memoir} should be used instead of \usepackage{memoir}. Not a big deal, but it shows you did not test your example in another case it could be very relevant if the untested constructed minimal example would not match the real problem because it wasn't tried.

You caught my inattention.
