Dear Friends, I played wih hte setup and read the posts on the list. Apparently the mechanism for setting different margins can be confusing at times. At least, it is for a beginner. I want to create 2 versions of my book: Version 1: Goes to printing with different inner and outer margins due to binding and so on, Version 2: Can be downloaded and the left and right margins are equal size. I want ot keep the 6x9 size of a page, which is: 432x648pt. The sum of margins in both cases is 120pt. It leaves 312pt for the text content. When I do hte following: \setuplayout[ alternative=doublesided, width=fit, height=fit, leftmargin=60pt, leftmargin=60pt, ...] The makeup width and text width is calculated as 472pt and the margin appears to be set just on one side. I set both cutspace and backspace to 0pt. I assumed that either value is a particular area of the page. Has any one of you handled such a case? I'll be very glad to get some directions. I can create a simple document with modes or documents to illustrate my case if needed... Thank you, Pawel
