I'm finishing my last year degree project, and the documentation must follow
some strict guidelines about style. The koma-script report document type fits
my needs very well, but I can't adjust the margins.

I'm pretty amazed with LyX because I've written a 180 sheet document without
knowing a word about LaTEX. It's a wonderful software.  I need to follow this
scheme:

        /--------------------\ | /--------------------\
4 cm    | header             | | |             header |
        |                    | | |                    |
        |    xxxxxxxxxxxx    | | |    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx  |
        |    xxxxxxxxxxxx    | | |    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx  |
                 ...                       ...
        |    xxxxxxxxxxxx    | | |    xxxxxxxxxxxxxx  |
        |                    | | |                    |
3 cm    |       foot         | | |       foot         |
        \--------------------/ \ \--------------------/
         <-->            <-->     <-->             <-->
        2,5 cm          3,5 cm   3,5 cm           2,5 cm

I'm using the following options in the Layout->Document->Options field:
    abstracton,openright, headsepline, footsepline, cleardoubleplain, 
    appendixprefix, tablecaptionbelow, twoside

And the "Double sided" checkbox is marked.

Thats 4 cm for the upper margin, 3 cm for the lower, 2,5 for the outer margin
and 3,5 for the inner one. None of the premade margin layout are like this, but
if I enter this data in the Layout->Document->Margins->"Others" fields I
don't get the correct margins. The sheets don't look symmetric, they look
"mirrored" and the physical space isn't the one I've set.

�How can I obtain the correct margins?
