Vertically centered title page

Vertically centered title page

[Flavien Lambert]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 524 bytes --]

Dear all, I am trying to build a presentation with specific requirements. I
would like to have the title of the presentation on the middle (both
vertical and horizontal) of the first page. I tried, on one hand, two
\vfill, and, on the other hand, \framed[location=middle,align=middle] but
without success. The title is always on the top of the text area. Any help
is welcome !

Try either

\null\vfill
...content...
\vfill\page


or

\startstandardmakeup
...content...
\stopstandardmakeup

         align=middle]
