It not only marks the end of the title and copyright pages, but also causes TeX to start generating page headings and page numbers. </p> <p>Texinfo has two standard page heading formats, one for documents printed on one side of each sheet of paper (single-sided printing), and the other for documents printed on both sides of each sheet (double-sided printing). </p> <p>In full generality, you can control the headings in different ways: </p> <ul> <li> The conventional way is to write a <code>@setchapternewpage</code> command before the title page commands, if required, and then have the <code>@end titlepage</code> command start generating page headings in the manner desired. <p>Most documents are formatted with the standard single-sided or double-sided headings, (sometimes) using <code>@setchapternewpage odd</code> for double-sided printing and (almost always) no <code>@setchapternewpage</code> command for single-sided printing (see <a href="_0040setchapternewpage.html"><code>@setchapternewpage</code>: Blank Pages Before Chapters</a>). </p> </li><li> Alternatively, you can use the <code>@headings</code> command to prevent page headings from being generated or to start them for either single or double-sided printing. Write a <code>@headings</code> command immediately after the <code>@end titlepage</code> command. To turn off headings, write <code>@headings off</code>. See <a href="_0040headings.html">The <code>@headings</code> Command</a>. </li><li> Or, you may specify your own page heading and footing format. See <a href="Headings.html">Page Headings</a>. </li></ul> </div> </body> </html>
