0004 document preparation system, version of November 2018.

0006 This manual was originally translated from LATEX.HLP v1.0a in the
0007 VMS Help Library.  The pre-translation version was written by
0008 George D. Greenwade of Sam Houston State University.  The
0009 LaTeX 2.09 version was written by Stephen Gilmore.  The
0010 LaTeX2e version was adapted from this by Torsten Martinsen.  Karl
0011 Berry made further updates and additions, and gratefully acknowledges
0012 using Hypertext Help with LaTeX, by Sheldon Green, and
0013 LaTeX Command Summary (for LaTeX 2.09) by
0014 L. Botway and C. Biemesderfer (published by the TeX Users
0015 Group as TeXniques number 10), as reference material.  We also
0016 gratefully acknowledge additional material appearing in
0017 latex2e-reference by Martin Herbert Dietze.  (From these references no
0018 text was directly copied.)

0125 
0126 <p>Synopsis, one of:
0127 </p>
0128 <div class="example">
0129 <pre class="example">\part{<var>title</var>}
0130 \part*{<var>title</var>}
0131 \part[<var>toc-title</var>]{<var>title</var>}
0132 </pre></div>
0133 
0134 <p>Start a document part.  The standard LaTeX classes <code>book</code>,
0135 <code>report</code>, and <code>article</code>, all have this command.
0136 </p>
0137 <p>This produces a document part, in a book.
0138 </p>
0139 <div class="example">
0140 <pre class="example">\part{VOLUME I \\
0141        PERSONAL MEMOIRS OF  U.\ S.\ GRANT}
0142 \chapter{ANCESTRY--BIRTH--BOYHOOD.}
0143 My family is American, and has been for generations,
0144 in all its branches, direct and collateral.
0145 </pre></div>
0146 
0147 <p>In each standard class the <code>\part</code> command outputs a part number
0148 such as &lsquo;<samp>Part I</samp>&rsquo;, alone on its line, in boldface, and in large
0149 type.  Then LaTeX outputs <var>title</var>, also alone on its line, in
0150 bold and in even larger type.  In class <code>book</code>, the LaTeX
0151 default puts each part alone on its own page. If the book is two-sided
0152 then LaTeX will skip a page if needed to have the new part on an
0153 odd-numbered page.  In <code>report</code> it is again alone on a page, but
0154 LaTeX won&rsquo;t force it onto an odd-numbered page.  In an <code>article</code>
0155 LaTeX does not put it on a fresh page, but instead outputs the part
0156 number and part title onto the main document page.
0157 </p>
0158 <p>The <code>*</code>&nbsp;form shows <var>title</var> 
0159 but it does not show the part number, does not increment the
0160 <code>part</code> counter, and produces no table of contents entry.
0161 </p>
0162 <p>The optional argument <var>toc-title</var> will appear as the part title in
0163 the table of contents (see <a href="Table-of-contents-etc_002e.html#Table-of-contents-etc_002e">Table of contents etc.</a>) and in running
0164 headers (see <a href="Page-styles.html#Page-styles">Page styles</a>).  If it is not present then <var>title</var>
0165 will be there.  This example puts a line break in <var>title</var> but leaves
0166 out the break in the table of contents.
0167 </p>
0168 <div class="example">
0169 <pre class="example">\part[Up from the bottom; my life]{Up from the bottom\\ my life}
0170 </pre></div>
0171 
0172 <p>For determining which sectional units are numbered and which appear in
0173 the table of contents, the level number of a part is&nbsp;-1
0174 (see <a href="Sectioning.html#Sectioning_002fsecnumdepth">Sectioning/secnumdepth</a> and see <a href="Sectioning.html#Sectioning_002ftocdepth">Sectioning/tocdepth</a>).
0175 </p>
0176 <a name="index-package_002c-indentfirst"></a>
0177 <a name="index-indentfirst-package"></a>
0178 
0179 <p>In the class <code>article</code>, if a paragraph immediately follows the part
0180 title then it is not indented.  To get an indent you can use the package
0181 <samp>indentfirst</samp>.
0182 </p>
0183 <a name="index-package_002c-titlesec-1"></a>
0184 <a name="index-titlesec-package-1"></a>
0185 
0186 <p>One package to change the behavior of <code>\part</code> is <samp>titlesec</samp>.
0187 See its documentation on CTAN.
