Use the geometry package to specify margins etc and tweak
values<br>
until you get exactly what you want.<br>
eg<br>
\usepackage[top=4.5cm,bottom=3cm,left=3cm,right=3cm]{geometry} % Sets
paper size, margins, etc<br>
% Paperheight=top+height+bottom note that
height=headheight+headsep+textheight+footskip<br>
% Paperwidth=left+width+right note that
width=textwidth+marginparsep+marginparwidth<br>
% Note that 'geometry.cfg' file sets a4paper as default<br><br>

Have my book manuscript all set, but can not figure out why the margins
for<br>
left & right are reversed, with the wide margin on outside & thin
margin<br>
inside. Also, the print on front & back do not align - when looking
at outer<br>
edge of a page, the type of the even side is about a quarter of an inch
shy<br>
of that of the odd side. I am hoping that there is a simple solution,
my<br>
wife who's a scientist initially set LaTeX up for me, but she can't
figure<br>
it out. <br><br>
<br><br>
Managed to get everything else looking decent - 650 page memoir with 149
eps<br>
pictures! Want to print some presentable drafts without these
probelms,<br>
though. The paper is 8.5 X 11 and the problem is visible in DVI. Here is
how<br>
it's set up now: <br><br>
