= A very very simple one =
And that's it, a very simple cover page. While it may be useful as such, it has several shortcomings. For example, the positions are not absolute, so a change in the title may move the information block in the lower right corner. Using the TABLE is just a show-off. If you do not need the "align-by-rightmost" alignment, <tt>\startnarrower[..][..] ... \stopnarrower</tt> provides much the same functionality with fewer commands and cleaner code.

= Background tricks without MetaPost =
[[File:ka37_cover.jpg|500px]]
The background structure is a photo (moiree effects in a microphone filter, JPEG), the left bar is made with a design program (Affinity Designer, PDF) and doesn’t include the structure, everything put together using [[Transparency]].
The image above is not a photo of the printed cover but just a JPEG export of the PDF; i.e. even if the cover paper is new and smooth, it looks structured and a bit faded.
