Margins too large in PDF export

Post by isilo »

Hi!

I´ve downloaded LyX today and it is a great editor. I got one issue though:

When creating PDF, the output has way too large margins to every side. I did not try to set margins manualy, but it seems wierd to me that default setting would be wrong.

I did not touch any settings, everything is default. I´m writing in article mode.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot

The default margin is very big with standard classes. I prefer KOMA-Script article over article, both work with LyX, but the KOMA-Script version has different defaults and is much more customizable.
