Hi Adi, Offhand, no, I don't know the default settings. It'll be around somewhere, but that doesn't help you <grin>.
The reason I suggested speaking with the publisher is that they should be able to inform you concerning good margin sizes. The correct answer depends on a number of factors, including text (point) size, paper size, number of pages (creep) and the style of binding (perfect, burst, ring, etc). If they can't/won't help you, you could aways print a sample page from lyx and take the measurements from that. HTH Nigel On 25/06/2008, Waluyo Adi Siswanto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Thank you ..
