Of course, starting a new paragraph has no sense. But (AFAIK) -- unlike `\par'
-- `\\' does mean "start a new line", doesn't it?
Before sending this question, I had already tried a workaround with
`\newline', but though the authors and the title were on 2 lines, their
centering on the title page was completely broken.
But your solution using `\linebreak':
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+TITLE: Main title \linebreak Subtitle
#+AUTHOR: Main author \linebreak Second one
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
DOES WORK. Thanks for your precious help!
I'm not sure to understand the subtle differences between `\\', `\newline' and
`\linebreak', though...
Best regards,
Seb
