+\maketitle
+
+The \textsf{a4wide} package redefines the margins so that they are more in line with what we are used to see.
+It was written by Jean-François Lamy in July 1986 and minimally modified for \LaTeXe\ by Alexander Holt, August 1994.
+
+The package is released under the LPPL, version 1, or (at your option)
+any later version.
+
+Depending on the base font size, it modifies the margins as follows:
+%
+\begin{center}
+ \begin{tabular}{@{}S[tabformat=2]S[tabformat=2]S[tabformat=1.3]S[tabformat=1.3]S[tabformat=1.2]@{}}
+ \toprule
+ {Base font} & {Number of lines} & {Width of} & {Width of left and} & {Width of} \\
+ {size (\si{\point})} & {in page body} & {text line (\si{\inch})} & {right margin (\si{\inch})} & {marginal notes (\si{\inch})} \\
+ \midrule
+ 10 & 53 & 5.875 & 0.25 & 0.75 \\
+ 11 & 46 & 6.125 & 0.125 & 0.75 \\
+ 12 & 42 & 6.375 & 0 & 0.75 \\
+ \bottomrule
+ \end{tabular}
