Re: different margins for even/odd pages

[Mason Hock]

It seems that my mistake was not including the '\' before 'mm'. Once I 
added that it worked as expected.


Thanks,

Mason

Hi Mason,

 Actually could you clarify how the outer margin works in two-sided 
mode? I would expect

 two-sided = ##t
 inner-margin = 0mm
 outer-margin = 0mm
 binding-offset = 0mm


Did you actually try that code, exactly as written, and get no error?
With what version, exactly?

Regardless, this works as expected for me:

  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.80"

\paper {
  two-sided = ##t
  inner-margin = 0\mm
  outer-margin = 0\mm
  binding-offset = 0\mm
}

\repeat unfold 120 c''4
  SNIPPET ENDS

Hope that helps,
Kieren.

Re: different margins for even/odd pages

[Mason Hock]

Actually could you clarify how the outer margin works in two-sided 
mode? I would expect


two-sided = ##t
inner-margin = 0mm
outer-margin = 0mm
binding-offset = 0mm

to result in a margin of 0mm on both sides of both even and odd pages. 
The inner margin behaves predictably, but the outer margin is about an 
inch (I'd have to print and measure it to determine the exact value). 
Is there a way to explicitly control the size of the outer margin?


Thanks,

Mason

Hi Mason,

 I need inner margins to be wider than outer margins to leave room 
for binding, so odd pages should have a wider margin on one side 
and even pages on the other. My workaround has been to render the 
document twice with the two different margin settings and mix/match 
pages. However, I would prefer to ability to define margins per 
page. Is this possible?




Cheers,
