There is a misunderstanding here: "Sides 2" means that your class (the underlying cls/sty files or the preamble you propose) uses twosided by default. So you you choose twosided, nothing is output, and if you choose onesided, it is actually output to latex. Basically, the layout file is only a _description_ of what the documentclass does. It may be (based on the sentence you quoted) that spacing is supposed to work differently. I do not know the specifics. JMarc
