Hello all,
I'd like to use Latex for my daily works. It's suitable for me since I
am blind and, using screeen readers, it's not easy to format documents
properly. With Latex, all ca be done only writing simple codes.
However, I'd like to modify a behavior. In my corporate documents,
title and author sound'nt be placed in a separated page and only in
the second page sections are started.
Let me show how is my code:

\documentclass[12pt, a4paper, titlepage]{article}
\usepackage[brazil]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{fourier}

\title{Método de Mensuração de Escopo de Projeto}
\author{Luciano de Souza}
\date{\today}

\begin{document}
\maketitle
\include{01_contexto}
\end{document}

\end{document}

Would someone know how to have title, author, date and the begining of
sections in the same page?
I'm using Miktex and Notepad++.

Hi Luciano,

Try changing include to input if 01_contexto is a tex file.

You are using the titlepage option in the documentclass command. This makes the title block go on a separate page. Remove the titlepage option and the title block will then be on the same page as the start of the article.

You may be interested in the work of TV Rahman who has developed emacspeak, an audio interface for the Emacs editor (so it automatically works with LaTeX-mode).  http://emacspeak.sourceforge.net/raman/

Peter.

It works! Now it's all together in the same page!
I changed "include" by "input", as Abel said, and I removed
"titlepage" option, as Peter said.
Hum... Is that the difference between "include" and "input"?
Peter, you are right. I think I'll like Emacspeak a lot. For
professional reasons, in this moment, I am using Windows, but I used
Linux for years and I am looking forward to come back to it.
I've never used Emacs, but some blind friends did and they are very
happy. I'm also plan to learn Emacs.

Oi Luciano

Hum... Is that the difference between "include" and "input"?

This question has been asked often.  Let me cite an answer I like, at https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/250/23418
" input imports the commands in place; it's equivalent to typing all the commands from the inputed file right into the current file at this invocation location."
" include essentially does a clearpage before doing an input, and also switch to another .aux file, and omits the inclusion at all if you have an includeonly without the filename in the argument. This is primarily useful when you have a big project on a slow computer; changing one of the include targets won't force you to regenerate the outputs of all the rest."

Hope that helps.
