custom coverpage layout

Post by AetherNZ »

I'm writing a report for Uni and they require a specific layout for the coverpage but I can't find the right technique to do it.

I need to centre the coverpage text in a box 12.5cm wide by 8cm high, with the left edge positioned 5.5cm from the left edge of the page and 8cm from the top.

What do I use? a minipage or do I have to do it separately using a custom page layout?


Thanks in advance

Kyle

Maybe the textpos package might do that, combined with a minipage?
