\thispagestyle
¶Synopsis:
\thispagestyle{style}
Works in the same way as the \pagestyle
(see \pagestyle
),
except that it changes to style for the current page only. This
declaration has global scope, so its effect is not delimited by braces
or environments.
Often the first page of a chapter or section has a different style. For
example, this LaTeX book document has the first page of the first
chapter in plain
style, as is the default (see Page styles).
\documentclass{book} \pagestyle{headings} \begin{document} \chapter{First chapter} ... \chapter{Second chapter}\thispagestyle{empty} ...
The plain
style has a page number on it, centered in the footer.
To make the page entirely empty, the command
\thispagestyle{empty}
immediately follows the second
\chapter
.
