Page Layout ⇒ Boxes

Hello,

I am trying to figure out how I can make the attached file in tex. The file attached was made with word/notability.

I think, you are not telling us the whole story. However, there are lot's of alternatives to make such a picture, e.g. using a tabular, a \framebox (and internally a \parbox), using the standard picture environment, using pgf, using tcolorbox, using …

A really simple example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
\begin{document}
\pagestyle{empty}
\noindent\begin{picture}(\textwidth,\textheight)
  \put(0,0){\framebox(\textwidth,\textheight){}}%
  \put(.5\textwidth,0){\line(0,1){\textheight}}%
  \put(0,.5\textheight){\line(1,0){\textwidth}}%
\end{picture}
\end{document}

And because this is very, very basic, I would recommend to read a (good) LaTeX introduction. You won't become happy using LaTeX without doing so.
