[comp.text.tex] Location of Page Foot

young@emx.utexas.edu (Young U. Ryu) (02/08/91)

Hi, \LaTeXperts.

I'd like to have a \LaTeX{} document in which the location
of the page foot is on the margin of the \textheight.

Please give me some hint.
If a solution is given, it would be much better :-)

A LONG, DETAILED, \& BORING DESCRIPTION
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
As default, \LaTex places the first page number on the foot:

        First Page                      Following Pages             t
        ^^^^^^^^^^                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^             e
|    ... ... ...             |   |    ... ... ...             |  |  x
|  blah blah blah blah blah  |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  |  t
|  blah blah blah blah blah  |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  |  h
|  blah blah blah blah blah  |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  |  e
|  blah blah.                |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  v  i
|                            |   |                            |     g
|             1              |   |                            |     h
+----------------------------+   +----------------------------+     t

However, I want it to be placed within the given \textheight:

        First Page                      Following Pages             t
        ^^^^^^^^^^                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^             e
|    ... ... ...             |   |    ... ... ...             |  |  x
|  blah blah blah blah blah  |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  |  t
|  blah blah blah blah blah  |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  |  h
|                            |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  |  e
|             1              |   |  blah blah blah blah blah  |  v  i
|                            |   |                            |     g
|                            |   |                            |     h
+----------------------------+   +----------------------------+     t
