Page Layout ⇒ article with twosites - right site is left and left is right

[dagna]

Hi!

I have problem with sites. I have document with following settings:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[12pt, twoside]{article}

\usepackage[a4paper,left=4.0cm,right=2.5cm,top=2.5cm,bottom=2.5cm]{geometry}
\usepackage{parskip}
\input{ustawienia.tex}
\setlength{\parskip}{6pt}           
\linespread{1.5}

\pagenumbering{roman} 
\setcounter{page}{2}

\input{strona_tytulowa.tex}
...
\end{document}

On first page there is left margin in size 2.5 cm and right margin in size 4 cm. Why?

Regards.

Two side mode is basically set up to things are arranged like a book, so the inside and outside margins reverse on even numbered pages. Geometry options left= means inside, and right= means outside. This is covered on page 3 of the geometry manual.

If you want all the pages to be the same, just remove twoside from the options to the article class.

(At least that should work -- you didn't provide the inputted tex files, so nobody can test your sample code, or see whether there's anything in there to conflict with such a setting, which makes it kind of pointless.)

I can't have all the same pages, I need to have 2.5 cm outside and 4 cm inside. I could change it and give left=2.5 and right=40, but I have one more problem.

I need have all section have on new card. So I'm using \cleardoublepage. But it give me blank pages in even and I need odd. Is it not any trick here?
