Page Layout ⇒ Annex Layout

[sw3quant]

I am using the package "appendix". My MWE is below.

On the page of the annex I get "A Blah" followed by a the rest of the page empty and then the pdf document starting on the next page.

I have two formatting questions:

1. How do I get it to write "Appendix A: Blah"?
2. How do I get it to shrink the first page of the PDF document by the correct amount, so that I the "Appendix A: blah" occurs and then the document is straight away below it? Ie I dont get a whole empty page. (I assume this means I will have the first page of the PDF a different size to the subsequent pages).

many thanks

Includepdf always puts the original contents on their own page. But you could use \includegraphics instead.

Are you suggesting that I convert the PDF into an image first and then include?

If so the loss of vectorised format sounds like it would not look so good for presentation purposes.

Many thanks!

You can include PDFs with \includegraphics just like an image:

Code: Select all

\includeqraphics{myfile.pdf}

This way you can use trim, clip, scale and whatever other graphicx option you want to fit the included PDF the way you need it.
