Explanation Of When To Use Binding Offset And |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: A customer is trying to use the Binding Offset feature to accomplish a 1" left margin, and a .5" right margin. The customer's document is in columns. There is a formula in the WP51 Reference Manual and in Folio that tells you how to figure out the Binding Offset, but it is designed to give you the answer, whereas this customer has the answer and needs the formula. Solutions: If customers are printing on only one side of the paper, they should not use the Binding Offset feature. Setting the margins to the desired setting will give the desired results. If the customers have already set up a columns definition before changing the margins, they will need to adjust the column widths to match the new margins. Column definition codes will not adjust automatically with a margin change. If customers are printing on both sides of the page, it is appropriate to use the Binding Offset feature. To obtain a 1" inside margin and a .5" outside margin; the left and right margins should both be set to .75" and the Binding Offset should be set to .25". The left and right margins should always be set the same. Once again, customers will need to adjust the columns definition if the margins are changed. |
