I am trying to make a header of an exam page but with logo. Below is my code.

\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\firstpageheadrule
\begin{figure}[]
\includegraphics[width=20mm]{logo.png}
\label{overflow}
\end{figure}
\chead{Department of Mathematics}

\begin{questions}
Question one
\end{questions}

\end{document}

I am trying to make something like enter image description here

But my code does not give a desired output. I have little clue why my code is not working. I am wondering how can I fix the code.

Helps are really appreciated. Many thanks!

  • Don't use figure environment. Use only \includegraphics. –  Feb 05 '14 at 02:19
  • @HarishKumar thanks. But the very top line will still be 'Department of Mathematics' and the logo will be inserted below. I would like to have the logo and the 'Department of Mathematics' on the same line. – Henry Feb 05 '14 at 02:22

    Please post compilable code. We don't even know which class you are using! – cfr Feb 05 '14 at 02:29
  • If I may, that's a very odd place to put a logo. It should probably go in the top-left corner, if you have a choice in the matter. See http://tex.stackexchange.com/a/44183/17423 for a how-to on that. – Sean Allred Feb 05 '14 at 03:20

Adjust the settings according to your needs:

\documentclass{exam}  
\usepackage[demo]{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\begin{center}
\includegraphics[width=20mm]{logo.png}\quad Department of Mathematics\par
AAA School\par\bigskip
Class A\par
First Exam--Functions\par
\end{center}

\vspace{0.8cm}

\noindent\begin{tabular}{@{}p{.35\textwidth}@{\hspace{4cm}}p{.20\textwidth}@{}}
Name:\enspace\hrulefill & Marks:\enspace\hrulefill \\[2ex]
Time: 60 minutes\hfill & Date:\enspace\hrulefill 
\end{tabular}\par\bigskip

\noindent\hrulefill

\vspace{0.5cm}

\begin{questions}
\question Question one
\end{questions}

\end{document}

The demo option for graphicx simply replaces actual figures with black rectangles; do not use that option in your actual document.

Let us add some spice! Here is a not so minimal template which you can adjust to have another design with some bling.

\documentclass[11pt,addpoints,answers]{exam}
\usepackage{graphicx,lastpage}
\hyphenpenalty 10000
\usepackage[paperheight=5.8in,paperwidth=8.27in,bindingoffset=0in,left=0.8in,right=1in,
top=0.7in,bottom=1in,headsep=.5\baselineskip]{geometry}
\flushbottom
\usepackage[normalem]{ulem}
\renewcommand\ULthickness{2pt}   %%---> For changing thickness of underline
\setlength\ULdepth{1.5ex}%\maxdimen ---> For changing depth of underline
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{1}
\pagestyle{empty}

\pagestyle{headandfoot}

\footrule
\footer{\footnotesize Student's name:}

For the logo, I would use two adjacent minipages, in this way:

\documentclass{exam}
\usepackage{graphicx}

\begin{document}

\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}{2.5cm}
\includegraphics[width=20mm]{logo.png}
\end{minipage}%
\begin{minipage}{4.5cm}
Department of Mathematics\\
AAA School
\end{minipage}
\end{center}

\bigskip

\begin{questions}
\question Question one
\end{questions}

\end{document}
