`@titlefont', `@center', and `@sp'
----------------------------------
You can use the `@titlefont', `@sp', and `@center' commands to
create a title page for a printed document. (This is the first of the
two methods for creating a title page in Texinfo.)
Use the `@titlefont' command to select a large font suitable for the
title itself.
For example:
@titlefont{Texinfo}
Use the `@center' command at the beginning of a line to center the
remaining text on that line. Thus,
@center @titlefont{Texinfo}
centers the title, which in this example is "Texinfo" printed in the
title font.
Use the `@sp' command to insert vertical space. For example:
@sp 2
This inserts two blank lines on the printed page. (sp,
for more information about the `@sp' command.)
A template for this method looks like this:
@titlepage
@sp 10
@center @titlefont{NAME-OF-MANUAL-WHEN-PRINTED}
@sp 2
@center SUBTITLE-IF-ANY
@sp 2
@center AUTHOR
...
@end titlepage
The spacing of the example fits an 8 1/2 by 11 inch manual.
