Hello!

Below is my MWE. I noticed that the top margin of the first page of every chapter is bigger than what I have set. It is 3cm and not 2cm which is what I want. What did I do wrong?

Hi Johannes,

I've dropped the abstract environment, as shown below. However, I don't quite understand the explanation you gave on pagenumbering. I would like to have my abstract up to list of symbols and abbreviations to be numbered iii to viii, respectively. Chapter 1 and beyond to be numbered by ...
