How to add other info to the title page (e.g. class, professor)?

Question

I am new to LaTeX and trying to write my first paper with it. I need help on the title page. I want something that says

                               Initial Planning Report

                         Author 1 Author 2 Author 3 Author 4

                                       Class:

                                       Professor:

                                       Date:

I am able to make the 4 authors and the title. But when I try to add centered text under the authors' names, it only puts it under the 4th authors name. And also, is there a way I could have the authors be aligned vertically instead of horizontally?

Answer 1

You may use the titlepage environment.

\documentclass[12pt]{report}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm}
\usepackage{amsfonts}
\usepackage[charter]{mathdesign}
%-----------------------------------------------------------------
\begin{document}
% ----------------------------------------------------------------
\begin{titlepage}
\begin{center}
 {\Huge\bfseries Initial Planning Report\\}

 \vspace{2cm}
 {\Large\bfseries Author -- 1}\\[5pt]

 {\Large\bfseries Author -- 2}\\[5pt]
