Book - information page

Question

I have a question regarding the latex book class.

I want to add a page (in the frontmatter) with information regarding copyright, ISBN, edition information, publisher, number of copies, year of publication, place of print, etc.

Is there a standard way of getting this information printed nicely?

Answer 1

Here is an example, adapted from the titlepages source:

\documentclass{book}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\usepackage{url}

\begin{document}

\pagestyle{empty}
%% copyrightpage
\begingroup
\footnotesize
\parindent 0pt
\parskip \baselineskip
