Alain, Thomas,

For displaying a frame around the text area to check layout, there's  
also the showframe package:

\usepackage{showframe}

According to the geometry package documentation, the showframe  
package is now obsolete, as its functionality has been taken over by:

\usepackage[showframe]{geometry}
or
\usepackage{geometry}
\geometry{showframe}

But the showframe option of the geometry package seems to only want  
to show the frame on the first page.  So maybe the older standalone  
showframe package is still necessary.

Best wishes,
