Appendix Title no forced page break

Question

I would like to have the title (or rather "section") "Appendix" (German: Anhang) right at the top of the page as it is, but with the pdf, I tried to include as an appendix, following right away without having a forced pagebreak.

Is this possible? Currently it looks like this:

Thank you very much in advance!

How to include PDF pages without a newpage before the first page? could be interesting. — leandriis, Jun 30 '19 at 17:44
I checked that too, but to me it looks like what I just tried, doesn't it? @leandriis
You can use the pagecommand key:

\includepdf[scale=0.8,pages=1,pagecommand=\subsection{blub}]{testpdf} — user168390, Jun 30 '19 at 18:08

You have to remove \addsec{\appendixname} from the definition of \appendixmore.

\newcommand*\appendixmore{%
  \clearpage
  %\addsec{\appendixname}% <- remove this
  \renewcommand{\thesubsection}{\Alph{subsection}}%
}

Then you can add this command to option pagecommand of the first included page.

\includepdf[pages=1,scale=0.75,
  pagecommand=\thispagestyle{plain}%
    \addsec{\appendixname}% <- add this
    \subsection{Auszug aus dem Tosa Nikki}
    {\footnotesize\textsc{Ki} (1957): \textit{Tosa Nikki} [Das Tagebuch von Tosa].\endgraf}% \footnotesize is a switch
  ]{example-image-a4.pdf}

Note that \footnotesize is a switch and does not take an argument.

Example using example-image-a4.pdf provided by package mwe.sty:

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper,headings=standardclasses,numbers=noenddot]{scrartcl}
\usepackage{showframe}
\usepackage[left=2.50cm, right=2.50cm, top=2.50cm, bottom=2.00cm, footskip=1cm]{geometry}
\usepackage[onehalfspacing]{setspace}
\usepackage[main=ngerman, english]{babel}
\usepackage[babel, german=quotes]{csquotes}
\usepackage[ngerman]{isodate}
\usepackage[ngerman]{datetime}

\renewcommand\sectionformat{\mbox{\thesection.\enskip$|$\enskip}}
\usepackage[ngerman]{datetime}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[
  beforeskip=2\baselineskip,
  afterindent=false,
  afterskip=.5\baselineskip,
  tocentrynumberformat=\def\autodot{.}
   ]{section}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[
  beforeskip=-1\baselineskip,
  afterskip=.5\baselineskip]{subsection}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[
  beforeskip=-1\baselineskip,
  afterskip=.5\baselineskip]{subsubsection}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[
  beforeskip=-1\baselineskip,
  afterskip=.5\baselineskip]{paragraph}

\RedeclareSectionCommand[
  beforeskip=-1\baselineskip,
  afterskip=.5\baselineskip]{subparagraph}
  \usepackage{authblk}
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------
%   APPENDICES
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------
\newcommand*\appendixmore{%
  \clearpage
  %\addsec{\appendixname}% <- remove this
  \renewcommand{\thesubsection}{\Alph{subsection}}%
}
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------
%   FIGURES
%----------------------------------------------------------------------------

\usepackage[final]{pdfpages}% loads also graphicx
%\usepackage{graphicx}%loaded by pdfpages
\graphicspath{ {./figures/} }
\usepackage{pdflscape}% maybe better than lscape
%\usepackage{booktabs}

%\usepackage{chngcntr}% only needed with older TeX Distributions
\renewcaptionname{ngerman}{\listfigurename}{Abbildungsverzeichnis}
\renewcaptionname{ngerman}{\figurename}{Abb.}
\counterwithout{figure}{section}
\renewcaptionname{ngerman}{\listtablename}{Tabellenverzeichnis}
\renewcaptionname{ngerman}{\tablename}{Tab.}
\counterwithout{table}{section}

\begin{document}
\appendix
\includepdf[pages=1,scale=0.75,
  pagecommand=\thispagestyle{plain}%
    \addsec{\appendixname}% <- add this
    \subsection{Auszug aus dem Tosa Nikki}
    {\footnotesize\textsc{Ki} (1957): \textit{Tosa Nikki} [Das Tagebuch von Tosa].\endgraf}% \footnotesize is a switch
  ]{example-image-a4.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=1,scale=0.75,pagecommand=\thispagestyle{plain}]{example-image-a4.pdf}
\end{document}

Additional remarks:

If you want to change \listfigurename etc. use \providecaptionname as in the example above.
Package chngcntr is not needed, if you do not use an older TeX Distribution.
pdfpages loads graphicx.

Thank you very much! :) It worked! – user168390 Jun 30 '19 at 20:29 — user168390, Jun 30 '19 at 20:29
