So, as a workaround, do not change the page via LyX's dialog box but
manually in the Latex Preamble?
That did not the trick.
In the LaTeX output you'll find, in that order:
\documentclass ...
\usepackage{savetrees}
\geometry{...}
and the resulting document **doesn't** have the dimensions specified
by the line beginning with '\geometry'.

A last guess (then I give up):
Set the page layout and margins in LyX, and load savetrees with
\usepackage[normalmargins]{savetrees} (see savetrees.pdf manual).

Wow. Now, that worked fine ! Great !! This will be a real time saver
for me, thanks very much !
