This environment always starts a new page\,---\,in two-sided printing a new right-hand page\,---\,and in single-column mode. For this page, the style is changed to \DescRef{maincls.cmd.thispagestyle}% \PParameter{\DescRef{maincls.pagestyle.empty}}, so that neither page number nor running head is output. At the end of the environment, the page is automatically shipped out. Should you not be able to use the automatic layout of the title pages provided by \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.cmd.maketitle}, described next, you should design a new one with the help of this environment. \IfThisCommonFirstRun{\iftrue}{% A simple example for a title page with \Environment{titlepage} is shown in \autoref{sec:\ThisCommonFirstLabelBase.titlepage} on \PageRefxmpl{\ThisCommonFirstLabelBase.env.titlepage}% \csname iffalse\endcsname% }% \begin{Example} \phantomsection\xmpllabel{env.titlepage} Suppose you want a title page on which only the word ``Me'' stands at the top on the left, as large as possible and in bold\,---\,no author, no date, nothing else.

In contrast to the standard classes, \Macro{maketitle} in {\KOMAScript} accepts an optional numeric argument. If it is used, this number is the page number of the first title page. This page number is not output, but it affects the subsequent numbering. You should definitely choose an odd number, because otherwise the whole count gets mixed up. In my opinion, there are only two useful applications for the optional argument. On the one hand, you could give the the logical page number -1 to the half-title\Index[indexmain]{half-title} in order to give the full title page the number 1. On the other hand, you could use it to start at a higher page number, for example, 3, 5, or 7, to accommodate other title pages added by the publishing house. The optional argument is ignored for \emph{in-page} titles. You can change the page style of such a title page by redefining the \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.cmd.titlepagestyle} macro (see \autoref{sec:maincls.pagestyle}, \DescPageRef{maincls.cmd.titlepagestyle}). The following commands do not lead immediately to the ship-out of the titles. The typesetting and ship-out of the title pages are always done by \Macro{maketitle}. Note also that \Macro{maketitle} should not be used inside a \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.env.titlepage} environment. As\textnote{Attention!} shown in the examples, you should use either \Macro{maketitle} or \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.env.titlepage}, but not both. The following commands only define the contents of the title. Therefore they must be used before \Macro{maketitle}. It is, however, not necessary and, when using the \Package{babel} package\IndexPackage{babel} not recommended, to include these in the preamble before \Macro{begin}\PParameter{document} (see \cite{package:babel}). You can find examples \IfThisCommonFirstRun{in the descriptions of the other commands in this section}{in \autoref{sec:\ThisCommonFirstLabelBase.titlepage}, starting on \PageRefxmpl{\ThisCommonFirstLabelBase.cmd.extratitle}}. \begin{Declaration} \Macro{extratitle}\Parameter{half-title} \Macro{frontispiece}\Parameter{frontispiece} \end{Declaration}% \begin{Explain}% In earlier times the inner book was often not protected from dirt by a cover. This function was then assumed by the first page of the book, which usually had just a short title, known as the \emph{half-title}. Nowadays the extra page often appears before the real main title and contains information about the publisher, series number, and similar information. \end{Explain} With {\KOMAScript}, it is possible to include a page before the real title page. The \PName{half-title} can be arbitrary text\,---\,even several paragraphs. The contents of the \PName{half-title} are output by {\KOMAScript} without additional formatting. Their organisation is completely left to the user. The verso of the half-title\IfThisCommonLabelBase{maincls}{% \ChangedAt{v3.25}{\Class{scrbook}\and\Class{scrreprt}\and\Class{scrartcl}}% }{% \IfThisCommonLabelBase{scrextend}{% \ChangedAt{v3.25}{\Package{scrextend}}% }{\ThisCommonLabelBaseFailure}% } is the frontispiece. The half-title is set on its own page even when in-page titles are used. The output of the half-title defined with \Macro{extratitle} takes place as part of the title produced by \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.cmd.maketitle}. \IfThisCommonFirstRun{\iftrue}{% An example of a simple title page with half-title and main title is shown in \autoref{sec:\ThisCommonFirstLabelBase.titlepage} on \PageRefxmpl{\ThisCommonFirstLabelBase.cmd.extratitle}% \csname iffalse\endcsname% }% \begin{Example} \phantomsection\xmpllabel{cmd.extratitle} Let's return to the previous example and suppose that the Spartan ``Me'' is the half-title.

It is often erroneously assumed to be the cover\Index{cover} or dust jacket. Therefore, it is frequently expected that the title page will not follow the normal layout for two-sided typesetting but will have equally large left and right margins. But if you pick up a book and open it, you will quickly find at least one title page inside the cover, within the so-called book block. Precisely these title pages are produced by \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.cmd.maketitle}. As is the case with the half-title, the full title page belongs to the book block, and therefore should have the same page layout as the rest of the document. A cover is actually something that you should create in a separate document. After all, it often has a very distinct format. It can also be designed with the help of a graphics or DTP program. A separate document should also be used because the cover will be printed on a different medium, such as cardboard, and possibly with another printer. Nevertheless, since \KOMAScript~3.12 the first title page issued by \DescRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.cmd.maketitle} can be formatted as a cover page with different margins. Changes to the margins on this page do not affect the other margins. For more information about this option, see \OptionValueRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase}{titlepage}{firstiscover}% \IndexOption{titlepage~=\textKValue{firstiscover}} on \DescPageRef{\ThisCommonLabelBase.option.titlepage}. \end{Explain} % \EndIndexGroup \begin{Declaration} \Macro{uppertitleback}\Parameter{titlebackhead}% \Macro{lowertitleback}\Parameter{titlebackfoot} \end{Declaration}% In\textnote{\KOMAScript{} vs. standard classes} two-sided printing, the standard classes leave the back (verso) of the title page empty.
