Hello *,
Can anybody please tell me how to make a two-line header in an
LaTeX document?
More specific: we need to write reports in which the footer line
is something like this:
______________________________________________________
Report 12.123 1990.12.01 Page 145
I manage to define a new document style, based on the article
style, in which I changed standard header to standard footer,
and then changed the footer to the text "Rep......Page 145".
That is all ok, but now the extra line. I tried several new
definitions of \@oddfoot{} with LaTeX and TeX commands like
\newline, \break, \\ and I tried things like \hbox{} and \box{}
but all to no avail.
The question is the two lines: perhaps someone already made a
new style with a double line header/footer (either is ok, of
course). Would he/she please drop me a line how-to?
Met vriendelijke groeten, Wim -b-b- van Dorst

Use my fancyheadings.sty. It gives you these possibilities and more.
How to get fancyheadings.doc and fancyheadings.sty from the archive at
Dept. of Computer Science, Utrecht University:
NOTE: In the following I have assumed your mail address is john@highbrow.edu.
Of course you must substitute your own address for this. This should be
a valid internet or uucp address. For bitnet users name@host.BITNET
usually works.

password: your own email address (e.g. john@highbrow.edu)
cd /pub
don't forget to set binary mode if the file is a tar/arc/zoo archive,
compressed or in any other way contains binary data.
get TEX/latexstyle/fancyheadings.doc
get TEX/latexstyle/fancyheadings.sty
by mail-server:
send the following message to
mail-server@cs.ruu.nl (or uunet!mcsun!hp4nl!ruuinf!mail-server):

The path command can be deleted if we receive a valid from address in your
