dear Uwe, Several users of memoir class and I have been giving you much agravation. I have now worked out about a misunderstanding. Your replies on the subject of left and right pages and bind margins are off course exactly correct. What is happening is that the amateurs like myself actually want to use the wide margin as a bind margin with those plastic strip binders you get to use in offices. For it to look good I want the wider margin on the WRONG side, so when I put my book into a home or office binder it looks professional. It is actually a stupid vanity because the publisher of my book takes no notice of my page design and layout. They do it to their own professional standards. Would you not be kind to us people who we will call "Wrong Siders" and tell us how to set that margin so that we retain the defaults already in the settings of Memoir class,but cause it to wrong side the extra white space. I would want the wider margin on odd pages to be at left of the text. I try very hard to understand Latex and am slowly getting to it but it is not for fools. We fools are clever enough to know we are fools so we do not mess with margins preset by the authors of Memoir class. You would be most kind if you could give some code for us to put in the PREAMBLE to give us the wrong side feature we want.
LYX made it possible for me to start writting novels. I have written over 500 000 words already and many more to go. Latex and LYX makes it so easy to be creative and let the words flow through the keys without interruption. To get our binders to look good we "wrongsiders" are printing page three on rear of page two and page one on obverse by itself so that pages one and two face each other when the bound up document is opened, Authors want to write and print it down on a desk top HP then bind it with a plastic strip and send it to publishers, looking as good as it can so bound, That is why you are seeing so much all the time about this margin for page one. How about posting it on Nabble for us Great regards and sorry we drove you crazy Llewellyn lee. Ps once I have the facility I will save a template with it so that I do not have to mess up my standard Memoir class. I will call the template NOVEL. all the people wanting this are writers of novels.
