Per http:= //orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/org-latex-export.html
"11.2 = Titles and Title Page Layout".

However my title page contains the = document title, date and version number.
I would rather not have to = create a separate "custom-title.tex"
for each document that I = create.

Can I specify the Title etc. in org-mode in such a way = that it can be
included in the custom Title page?

I have = tried moving "custom-title.tex" into org-mode sandwiched
between = #+BEGIN_latex / #+END_latex commands, but this does not put
the = title on the first page.

I have included a blank

#+TITLE =

and

#+OPTIONS: toc:nil

but this still generates = an empty page before my custom title page. =

Aloh= a Luke,

IIUC, you would like to have a custom = title page that picks up the title, author, date, etc. from the Org-mode = file.

One way to do this is to keep the LaTeX = variables for title, author, date, etc. in your new \maketitle, then put = it in a new LaTeX class file that can be registered with = Org-mode.

I have this in my custom class = file:

\renewcommand\@maketitle{%
  \newpage
  \null
  \begin{center}%
  \let \footnote = \thanks
   = {\usebox{\FIRM}}%
   \vskip 3em%
   {\LARGE = \@title \par}%
   \vskip = 1.5em%
   {\large
   = \lineskip .5em%
   = \begin{tabular}[t]{c}%
   = \@author
   = \end{tabular}\par}%
   \vskip = 1em%
   {\large = \@date}%
  \end{center}%
  \par
  \vskip = 1.5em}

where \FIRM is a&nb= sp;company logo and @title, @author, and @da= te correspond to Org-mode's #+TITLE:, etc.
