graphicsheader-footervertical alignment
I can't seem to be able to align our logo and page number in the footer. I have the code below:
\pagestyle{fancy} % enable fancy page style
\renewcommand\headrulewidth{0pt}
\renewcommand\footrulewidth{0pt}
\fancyhf{} % clear header and footer
\fancyhead[L]{\leftmark} % leftmark shows the chapter, rightmark shows the section.
\fancyfoot[C]{\thepage}
\fancyfoot[R]{ % right
\includegraphics[scale=0.5]{general_images/logo.png}
}
How can I align the page number and the logo? Any ideas?
This seems like a crude way of doing it, but it is fairly straight forward:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{array,graphicx,lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/{array,graphicx,lipsum}
\begin{document}
\noindent\begin{tabular}{@{}p{.5\textwidth}@{}>{\raggedleft\arraybackslash}p{.5\textwidth}@{}}
& My name \\ & My street \\ & My city \\ & My postal code \\
\smash{\includegraphics[height=5\normalbaselineskip]{example-image-a}} & My country
\end{tabular}
\lipsum
\end{document}
I've made the height of the image be equivalent to the height of the name/address portion (5 lines or \normalbaselineskips). Inserting the image on the same line as the last entry of your address allows you to use \smash to avoid any vertical adjustment within the tabular.
Some components involved in the solution:
\noindent: Removed the regular paragraph indent inserted when starting a paragraph (note that this happens with the first Lorem ipsum paragraph below the image);@{} in the tabular column specification removes the inter-column spacing inserted usually between adjacent columns like. This space inside a tabular is given by \tabcolsep;>{<stuff>}: This is a directive offered by the array package that inserts <stuff> before the start of the cell. An analogous <{<stuff>} is also provided (but not used) for inserting <stuff> after the end of the cell. I insert \raggedleft to make the cell contents be flush with the right margin. There's also \arraybackslash which is a correction tool when using the > and < directives, re-establishing the functionality of \\;p{.5\textwidth}: Both columns in the tabular are set in paragraph mode/style with a width of .5\textwidth - half the text block width.\smash: removes any vertical height of an object which would otherwise influence the line gap between successive rows in the tabular.\normalbaselineskip: The regular \baselineskip that is used outside the tabular environment is captured in \normalbaselineskip for use inside the tabular, if needed.
I made the image as high as 5 lines, since my personal details spanned 5 lines.Here is my take at it. It is not well defined but sort of does what you are looking for.
\documentclass[letterpaper]{article}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{lastpage}
\usepackage{calc}
\footskip=70pt
\def\companylogo{\rule{2cm}{2cm}}
\fancypagestyle{companypagestyle}
{
\fancyhf{}
\fancyfoot[L]
{
\parbox[b]{\dimexpr\linewidth-2.5cm\relax}
{
\sffamily \bfseries\hfill MyCompany, MyStreet 1\\
Page \thepage\ of \pageref{LastPage}\hfill 1234 City, Country\\
{\color{red}\rule{\dimexpr\linewidth\relax}{0.4pt}}\\
www.mycompany.com
}
}
\fancyfoot[R]
{
\parbox[b]{2cm}{\companylogo}%
}
}
\pagestyle{companypagestyle}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\lipsum
\end{document}
Best Answer
With
\includegraphics, the base line for alignment is at the bottom. You could use\raiseboxto raise or to lower the image. Thecalcpackage can help in calculating if required. For example for top alignmentor with more calculation
or for middle alignment instead
