Post subject:  LaTeX header/footer help
Hi all,

I have a document using the report document class and I'm using the fancyhdr package to create headers and footers.
I've noticed that headers and footers don't display on a page where \chapter is used, they also don't appear on my \abstract and \tableofcontents pages...On these pages the default header (nothing) and the default footer (just the page number) is used.

My code looks something like this:

Code:
\documentclass[12pt]{report}

\usepackage[pdftex]{color,graphicx}
\usepackage[final]{pdfpages}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\usepackage{lastpage}
\usepackage{geometry}

\geometry{a4paper, textwidth=14.5cm, textheight=24.5cm}
\pagestyle{fancy}

\cfoot{\thepage{} of \pageref{LastPage}}
\lfoot{Author: Benjamin Ian Lavery}


Thanks,
Ben

I don't have LaTeX here atm, but I'd have a look here first. Possibly try this one:

Code:
\pagestyle{fancyplain}
 
\fancyhf{}
 
\lhead{\fancyplain{}{Andrew Roberts}}
\rhead{\fancyplain{}{\today}}
\rfoot{\fancyplain{}{\thepage}}

Thanks for that Edd,

Unfortunately it didn't work for me :(
However, with more Googling, I found that if I do this:
Code:
\chapter{Introduction}
\thispagestyle{fancy}


It works correctly for everything except the abstract page, which can stay as it is I think :)

Thanks again Edd,

Ben
