   How does one change the default margin settings in TeX?

In Plain TeX, you use \hoffset and \voffset (qq.v.) to set the margins
at the left and right of the page.  The parameters \hsize and \vsize
control the size of the chunk of text on the page.

Here's one way to set the margins for a plain TeX document:

	%  choose some margins:
	\newdimen\sidemargin \sidemargin=20mm
	\newdimen\topmargin  \topmargin=\sidemargin
	\newdimen\botmargin  \botmargin=1.25\topmargin

	%  calculate size and offset parameters:
	\hsize=210mm \advance\hsize-2\sidemargin
	\vsize=297mm \advance\vsize-\topmargin \advance\vsize-\botmargin
	\hoffset=\sidemargin \advance\hoffset-1in
	\voffset=\topmargin \advance\voffset-1in

This example gives an A4 page (210mm * 297mm) with 20-mm margins at the
top and sides and a slightly larger margin at the bottom.  You might
want to change the assignments to \hsize and \vsize to 8.5in and 11in
(or whatever).

The above code has the flaw that it does not set \vsize to a multiple of
\baselineskip (which is important of you have \parskip=0pt and so very
little vertical glue).

In LaTeX you should in theory have style option files to do this for
you.  In practice you have to translate the above into LaTeX's
terminology and put it in your document preamble.  I think the following
is approximately right:

	\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{20mm}
	\setlength{\evensidemargin}{\oddsidemargin}
	\setlength{\topmargin}{\sidemargin}
	\newlength{\botmargin} \setlength{\botmargin}{1.25\topmargin}

	\addtolength{\oddsidemargin}{-1in}
	\addtolength{\evensidemargin}{-1in}
	\addtolength{\topmargin}{-1in}
	\addtolength{\botmargin}{-1in}

	\setlength{\textwidth}{210mm} 
		\addtolength{\textwidth}{-\oddsidemargin}
		\addtolength{\textwidth}{-\evensidemargin}
		\addtolength{\textwidth}{-2in}
	\setlength{\textwidth}{297mm} 
		\addtolength{\textwidth}{-\topmargin}
		\addtolength{\textwidth}{-\botmargin}
		\addtolength{\textwidth}{-2in}

LaTeX has built-in parameters \evensidemargin, \oddsidemargin and
\topmargin, all of which are set to be one inch less than you want the
margins to be.  The above code creates a new parameter \botmargin with
the same conventions.

Hope this helps

I have a document, typeset in amstex 2.1, with \documentstyle{amsppt} (also
version 2.1), and I would like different margins on the odd and even pages.

Does anyone know how to do this?

As a substitute, I would be happy to typeset the whole document with one
set of margins, print only the odd pages, then re-typeset the document with
the different margins and then print just the even pages.  But I do not
know how to adjust the margins for the whole document in one swoop.

I have found the \rightskip and \leftskip macros, and they adjust the text,
but they don't affect things like footnotes or references.  I am not eager
to dig out the definitions of these items.

The \pageheight and \pagewidth macros don't change the left margin.  Are
there any suggestions out there?

   This may seem like an esoteric problem, but it's very real when you

Sounds like you may have used an inappropriate tool for converting the fonts
to a format suitable for the NeXT.  What did you use to do this?  Did you
start with the Mac or the PC version of the fonts?

Note that many conversion tools are not suitable for fonts other than plain
vanilla text fonts.  They have trouble with fonts that do not use the usual
encoding, particularly if the font uses characters in the 0 - 31 and range
(and 127), or if the font does not have a space in 32.  
Are the characters you are missing in the 0 - 31 range?

What version of DVIPS are you running? Some older versions had a problem
with fonts that use repeated encoding (if not reflected in the TFM file).

Also, Display PostScript is rather fussy about what is in the AFM files.
Most applications don't look at AFM files, so what exactly is in them is 
of little concern, but Display PostScript does care.
For example, it may group fonts based on FamilyName, which is the same for
all 75 of the CM fonts  

Life is a bit easier if you buy fonts already set up for Display PostScript
on the NeXT...

Sorry, but I don't see what this has to do with the fact that TeX
internally calculates in sp:
height+depth / height of line
will always give the number of lines (approximately, if lines are
not fixed spaced) - regardless of the length unit used.

Well, there is also a lovely little macro at SHSU called
boxit.sty. It allows you to include lines of text separated
by \\.

You can still achieve the same thing by shadow.sty. All you
have to do is to place the \shabox's argument in a minipage 
environment.

Normally, if you make the argument of the box macros to be
a minipage environment, you will get around what you want to do.
Also, consider getting fancybox.sty and/or boxedminipage.sty.

Organization: Info-Tex<==>Comp.Text.Tex Gateway
X-Gateway-Source-Info: Mailing List

julio dix (jd01@swtexas.bitnet, to comp.text.tex, jan 8) wants
to strip off the first digit from a series of digits in a box,
replacing the remaining digits into the same box.

i won't tackle the boxing part of the question, but can explain
why the whole string of numbers is being gobbled at once.

take a simpler example:
    \newcount\num
    \def\newnum#1#2.{\num=#1 \def\rest{#2}}
    \newnum12345.
this will end up with \num=12345 and \rest empty (with a delimited
string, the part between delimiters need not contain anything).

reason?  a counter is expecting an integer value.  12345 is just as
much an integer as 1, so parsing of the argument continues until a
non-digit is encountered.  this can also have some surprising effects
when a numeric value is the last thing in the expansion of a
definition and data following that control sequence in a file is
also numeric.  (a warning in tugboat 5#1, p.48, covered this in more
detail, but that was a long time ago, and maybe it's time to
reiterate.)

if num is treated as a token string or an ordinary control sequence,
this approach will work.  if it's really necessary to set a counter
to the value of the first digit, do it in two steps:
    \newcount\num
    \def\newnum#1#2.{\def\xnum{#1}\num=\xnum \def\rest{#2}}
    \newnum12345.

I tried to send this earlier today -- but lost my connection just as I mailed
it -- we'll see.

I use TeX on the Mac here at the SSC -- but have opted for OzTeX rather than
TeXtures or Lightning TeXtures...  This allows for using Microsoft Word (or any
other WP) as editor and then OzTeX (pronounced Aussie? the author is in
Australia) to TeX the docs.

If you are interested in OzTeX, it's free and can be downloaded from Chicago
Midway -- I can get the details if you're interested.  I keep mine (and all
those I distribute to other users here) loaded with Plain, PHYZZX and LaTeX,
plus TeXsis, the macro package we use here as standard.  The main difference is
that you do not store the font files in your system -- they are kept as PK
files in the OzTeX folder.  Keeps the system running cleaner. (It does,
however, make the OxTeX require 11+ megs.)

As for the SPELLING CHECKER problem, I sat down and ran the manuals for PHYZZX,
TeXsis and a version of Knuth's TeXbook I pulled off the internet through
Microsoft word and created a dictionary supplement with the majority of those
\characters included.  Of course, it also includes a swarm of high energy
physics terms and names of institutions and physicists.

I could RTF this to you if you're interested.  It wouldn't be too great a task
to remove the HEP terms and proper nouns.

I started out on TeXtures, but it tends to collapse under the weight of some of
our docs -- and OzTeX has not.

But the dictionary sup would work either way.
