General ⇒ Two sided document

[nff]

Hi,
how can i begin a two sided document with a right page?

I've tried with

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,twoside,titlepage]{article}

but it doesn't work: document begin with a left page.

You should change the class: try report. Or insert a blank page first.

Hi nff,

this code line starts an article document twosided and with titlepage. The first page gets the pagenumber 1 and this is an odd number. Odd numbers are right pages in twosided documents. So where's the problem?
You wrote that your document begins with a left page. Does that mean your document begins with an even page? Or perhaps do you mean that the margins are not like intended?

the second one. i want the largest margin on left side of titlepage

Hi nff,

you could use the geometry package, see its documentation (5.3 Margin Size).

Example:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[inner=3.0cm,outer=2.0cm,tmargin=2.5cm,bmargin=2.5cm]{geometry}
