Changing font of the titlepage of tufte-book












3















I would like to change the font and the style used in the titlepage of tufte-book class.



I don't like the 'all caps' style and would rather have normal text in that page.



By reading the documentation I have found only the commands for changing fonts in other elements, such as captions, but not in the title page. In the attempts I made I was able to modify the style of the title, but other elements (like the author name) stay all caps.



This is the basic code I am using:



title[Sample title]{%
setlength{parindent}{0pt}%
Sample par%
Title par vspace{1cm}
}
% usebox{titleimage}}


author{Author name here}


which produces this page:



enter image description here



Is there anyone who knows how to do it?



Thanks

    Can you please add a simple example of how you're producing the title page? Having some code to play with is better.

  • I modified the question and added the code + output. I removed the graphics (titleimage) for the sake of clarity.

To redesign the title page, just redefine the maketitlepage macro:



renewcommand{maketitlepage}{%
cleardoublepage
{%
sffamily
begin{fullwidth}%
fontsize{18}{20}selectfontparnoindenttextcolor{darkgray}{thanklessauthor}%
vspace{11.5pc}%
fontsize{36}{40}selectfontparnoindenttextcolor{darkgray}{thanklesstitle}%
vfill
fontsize{14}{16}selectfontparnoindentthanklesspublisher%
end{fullwidth}%
}%
thispagestyle{empty}%
clearpage
}


Here I've removed the original allcaps formatting.

  • For this to work I needed to convince LaTeX to let me redefine the macro. I added letmaketitlepagerelax right before the newcommand.

  • @m00am Whoops! Good catch! I've updated the answer to use renewcommand.
