:-) :-) :-) No.
Now you know the true extent of my newbietude. Thanks. It works now.
By the way, at first I forgot to check "Use Geometry Package", so that
no matter what I placed in the margin settings of Layout->document->paper,
whether it was 1cm or 10cm, it didn't affect the margins of the .dvi.
Checking "Use Geometry Package" enabled Lyx to do the right thing. Especially
nice is it leaves binding space on the left margin of odd pages and the right
margin of even pages.
Thanks Herbert
Steve
