I am having troubles to set up a title page with article class.

My problem is same than here, but in addition to this example, I am using a two-sided document. If I add titlepage option here, the titlepage is not aligned in middle but aligned in twoside-style. However, for printing, I would prefer a middle-aligned titlepage. How is this possible?

How can I get \maketitle to create a separate title page with the article class?

\documentclass[titlepage,twoside]{article}

\begin{document}

\title{An example}
\author{Me}
\date{Today}
\maketitle

\section{First Section}
Hello world.

\end{document}

  • It seems to me that the title in the middle.

    You can create the titlepage separately with its own geometry and include it in your document using pdfpages.

    Please, don't use \maketitle inside the titlepage environment, it is just wrong.

You can use geometry package and fix hmarginratio and later restore the original layout.

\documentclass[titlepage,twoside]{article}
\usepackage[pass,showframe]{geometry}       %% showframe just for demo

\begin{document}
\newgeometry{hmarginratio=1:1}    %% make layout symmetric
\title{An example}
\author{Me}
\date{Today}
\maketitle
\restoregeometry              %% restore the layout
\section{First Section}
Hello world.

\end{document}
