>From the picture the exact measures are not clear, but perhaps you should
try:
      ...
      width=115mm,
      ...
      leftmargindistance=25mm]
'width' is used to set the textwidth. And 'leftmargindistance'is used to
indicate the distance between the lefmargin column and the body text, so I
think it should be a positive amount. This setting will result in an empty
backspace of 20mm + margin of 25mm + 25mm whitespace + 115mm bodytext +
cutspace of 25mm cutspace (assuming you're using A4 papersize).
