LaTeX: How to get an empty page with text at bottom?

Question

I want an empty page with two sentences at the bottom of it. I've tried the following without success:

\thispagestyle{empty}
\begin{flushbottom}

\begin{center}
© 2010\\
All Rights Reserved.
\end{center}
\end{flushbottom}

The text appears at the top of the page. Thanks in advance for your comments!

Answer 1

... \hfill and \vfill, which cause LaTeX to create as much horizontal or vertical space as possible (within the boundaries of a page as defined in the preamble).

Not tested, though:

\null
\vfill
\begin{center}
    © 2010\\
    All Rights Reserved.
\end{center}

TEX has a \null command, which is shorthand for an empty horizontal box ...

Answer 2

You could do it with the fancyhdr package.

\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\fancypagestyle{copyrightinfo} { %
\fancyfoot[C]{\copyright{} 2010 \\ All rights reserved}
\renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}}

And then, on the first/last page (wherever you want the copyright warning to appear, put \thispagestyle{copyrightinfo}

(edit: added the headrulewidth line, because otherwise it puts a line above the main text.)

Answer 3

\null
\vfill
bottom here

Answer 4

Instead of \null\vfill you could use \vspace*{\fill}.
