Allow pagebreak in \maketitle

Open Jellby opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

I'm sorry if I already brought this up, but I can't find any record of it.

When there are many authors and affiliations, the whole \maketitle does not fit in one page, but it just spills out and gets truncated. It would be nicer if pagebreaks were allowed, maybe an option not to use a minipage. My current hack:

\let\oldminipage\minipage
\let\oldendminipage\endminipage
\renewenvironment{minipage}[1]{}{}
\g@addto@macro{\maketitle}{\let\minipage\oldminipage\let\endminipage\oldendminipage}

I have the same issue and tried your hack, but could not get it to work. The last line gives an "Undefined control sequence" error in Overleaf on the latest achemso template.

Where should you place the code, and do you call \maketitle explicitly?

(I am a beginner in LaTeX, but have submitted a few manuscripts with fewer authors to ACS journals using this template.)

Perhaps you are missing \makeatletter ... \makeatother around the snippet? I put it in the preamble, but I haven't tried in Overleaf.
