I am trying to follow the formatting requirements for a specific conference which state that the document title must have 1.5 inch left and right margins while the rest of the paper must have 1 inch margins.
I have tried the solution shown here: Different margins for title page
However, I need the text following the title to be on the same page as the title. How can I get different margins for the document title and the document text while both appear on the same page?
\documentclass[12pt]{article}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[top=1in,bottom=1in,right=1in,left=1in]{geometry}
\usepackage{times}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\newgeometry{top=1in,bottom=1in,right=1.5in,left=1.5in}
\title{A long title that wraps onto a second line to show where the margin is}
\author{\normalsize Author A. Name\\\normalsize email@example.com\\\normalsize Awesome Department\\\normalsize Big Deal University}
\date{}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\restoregeometry
\section{Intro}
\lipsum[1-5]
\end{document}
Best Answer
You can use
\newgeometry
,\restoregeometry
from thegeometry
package; a little example:The answer above assumed that the titling infomation should appear on a page of its own; after the edit to the original question it is clear that this is not the case; the titling information is produced using \maketitle and the document text should begin immediately afterwards.
In this case, the
adjustwidth
environment from thechangepage
package can be used; a patching of\@maketitle
does the job:The
showframe
option was used only to have a visual guideline.
