I'm writing a book (book class) in which I want to have marginal notes containing symbols, rather like the Dummies series. As it's a book I'm using the two-sided layout.
This works OK using the marginal note command, but after I put a blank page at the beginning (needed to make the title page etc. appear on the correct side), the marginal notes come out on the wrong sides of the pages in the body of the text. I found the command \reversemarginpar, which corrects the error except that the notes are now too far away from the text, right at the edge of the page. Any way to fix this? I tried adding width arguments, e.g. [width=12pt] and [width=0.5in] without effect.
