Page Layout
=============
Paper Size
------------
The following determmine the size of the paper:
Height
+++++++
* default-simple-page-master.page-height = 11in
The short version is:
* paper-size.height = 11in
Width
++++++
* default-simple-page-master.page-width = 8.5in
The short version is:
* paper-size.width = 8.5in
Page Margins
---------------
For a Simple Document
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Each set of properties has the same effect.
* simple-page-master.top-margin = 1in
* simple-page-master.bottom-margin = 1in
* simple-page-master.right-margin = 1in
* simple-page-master.left-margin = 2in
The short versions are:
* page.top-margin = .75in
* page.bottom-margin = .75in
* page.right-margin = .75in
* page.left-margin = .75in
The properties can be reversed:
* page.margin-top = .75in
* page.margin-bottom = .75in
* page.margin-right = .75in
* page.margin-left = .75in
For Documents with First, Odd, and Even Pages
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Here is how to set margins for the first, even, and odd pages. Note that these
will work only if you choose ``page-layout``=``odd-even``, or ``page-layout``
= ``first-odd-even,`` or ``page-layout`` = ``first``.
The long version:
* odd-simple-page-master.top-margin = 1in
* odd-simple-page-master.bottom-margin = 1in
* odd-simple-page-master.right-margin = 1in
* odd-simple-page-master.left-margin = 2in
*
* even-simple-page-master.top-margin = 1in
* even-simple-page-master.bottom-margin = 1in
* even-simple-page-master.right-margin = 2in
* even-simple-page-master.left-margin = 1in
* first-simple-page-master.top-margin = 1in
* first-simple-page-master.bottom-margin = 1in
* first-simple-page-master.right-margin = 2in
* first-simple-page-master.left-margin = 1in
The short versions:
* odd-page.top-margin = 1in
* odd-page.bottom-margin = 1in
* odd-page.right-margin = 1in
* odd-page.left-margin = 2in
*
* even-page.top-margin = 1in
* even-page.bottom-margin = 1in
* even-page.right-margin = 2in
* even-page.left-margin = 1in
* first-page.top-margin = 3in
* first-page.bottom-margin = 1in
* first-page.right-margin = .8in
* first-page.left-margin = 2in
Headers and Footers
---------------------
Setting the space, or height.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Long version:
* header-region-before.extent = 1in
* footer-region-after.extent = 1in
Short version:
* header.height = 1in
* footer.height = 1in
To make the header closer to the page, use the ``space-before`` property::
header.space-before = .2in
Use the ``'space-before'`` property for the footer, as well, to move it
closer to the text::
footer.space-before = -.1in
Documnet
=============
The following properties can be set for the entire document:
* font-size
* font-family or font
The short version of ``'font-family'`` is ``'font'``; they are synonymous.
Possible font-families are serif, sans-seif, monospace; Times, Helvitica
Coureir, ZapfDingbats, and Symbol. Since these font families are buiit in,
they are guarenteed to work, regardless of the availability of fonts on
an operating system.
Body
=====
The following properties can be set for the body of the document. The body
is defined as everything except headers and footers.
* font-size
* font
* line-height or line-spacing
The property ``'line-spacing'`` is the short version of ``'line-height'``;
They are synomous.
Set ``line-spacing`` to a number to determine the spacing relative to
the font size. For example, a value of ``'2'`` sets the line spacing to
double.
Set ``'line-spacing'`` to a measure, such as ``'24pt'`` to set an absolute
value to the line spacing.
