I have a 2 page mail merge letter, 1st page needs 1.5" left margin while the second page needs a 1" left margin. I can't get it to work correctly. I type the letter, then at the natural page break of the letter, I enter a manual page break, put cursor on the next page, then choose Format->Page and set the margins appropriately. This changes all pages in the document including the first page, despite the Help topic's statement that this way should work.

You should set, or modify the "First Page" style to give you the margins you require on that first page, making sure that you select the "Next Style" in the "Organiser" tab to be your continuation style, either a modified "Default" style, or one you create with the second page margins that you require.

You don't need a manual page break to achieve the margin changes; it's automatic via the styles.

That's it!

The easy way of using this would be to create a template with the appropriate style definitions. That way, all future letters could use the styling you desire.
