+
+ ã|Description:ã%
+The \pageformat markup specifies the page size and margins. The dimensions
+and margins for the pages of a document are set with page formatting markup.
+These submarkup are valid only within the \pageformat markup. Its seven
+submarkup are described below.
+
+ã|pagelengthã% specifies the length of the page to be used. The default
+page length, 11 inches is maximum for most printers.
+
+ã|pagewidthã% specifies the width of the page to be used. The default
+page width, 8.5 inches, is maximum for most printers. The \pagewidth
+and \rightmargin submarkup may optionally be replaced with the \galleywidth
+submarkup.
+
+ã|topmarginã% sets the distance from the top of the paper to the first line
+of text, excluding the top title(s). The default value is 1 inch.
+
+ã|bottommarginã% sets the distance from the bottom of the paper to the last
+line of the text, excluding the bottom title(s). The default value is 1
+inch.
+
+ã|leftmarginã% sets the distance from the left edge of the page to the left
+edge of the text. The default value is 1.2 inches.
+
+ã|rightmarginã% sets the distance from the right edge of the page to the
+right edge of the text. The default value is 1 inch. The \pagewidth
+and \rightmargin submarkup may optionally be replaced with the \galleywidth
+submarkup.
+
+ã|bindingadjustã% is used to offset left and right margins, which is useful
+for duplex printing (on both sides). The value given the \bindingadjust
+submarkup will increase the left margin on odd pages and decrease the left
+margin on even pages. The page text width is not shortened, only the
+margin. The default value is {0pt}.
+
+ã|galleywidthã% may be substituted for \pagewidth and \rightmargin to
+determine the width of the text. The \galleywidth has the same dimension
+as \hsize. You cannot use \galleywidth in the same fashion, however, as
+\hsize.
+
+ ã|Example:ã%
+This custom source has 90 point (1 1/4inch) left and right margins.
+
+\pageformat{\leftmargin{90pt}
+ \rightmargin{90pt}}
+
+ ã|Example:ã%
+This custom source sets up a 9 inch by 6 inch page size. The margins have
+been decreased accordingly. A binding adjust value has been added.
+
+\pageformat{\pagelength{9in}
+ \topmargin{.5in}
+ \bottommargin{.5in}
+
+ \leftmargin{.6in}
+ \galleywidth{4.9in}
+ \bindingadjust{.2in}
+ }
+
+ ã|Notes:ã%
+Do note include \pagewidth and \rightmargin in the \pageformat markup if you
+use the \galleywidth submarkup.
