[templateuser]

How can I make a subtitle in smaller font between the original title and author? The \subtitle command won’t work, neither did font size commands..

Hi Joel,

Modify the \preauthor{} line to this:

\preauthor{\usefont{OT1}{phv}{m}{s} \color{DarkRed} \LARGE Subtitle\begin{flushleft}\large \lineskip 0.5em \usefont{OT1}{phv}{b}{sl} \color{DarkRed}}

You can change the white space before this subtitle in the line above and white space below by adding \vspace{} right after the subtitle text.

Cheers,
Vel

\title{(Title)}
\subtitle{(Subtitle)}

\maketitle

\end{document}

Hi Catherine,

welcome to the forum!

Thanks for the suggestion. Indeed, some classes such as those of KOMA-Script, and beamer, provide a \subtitle command, while base classes don't have it.

Thanks, I've now added this to the Arsclassica Article template.
