General ⇒ Changing margins in only part of the document

[fliptomato]

Hello -- I'm having trouble changing margins in only part of my document.

I'm trying to use \marginpar to insert margin notes, but there isn't enough room. However, my document has a title page and introductory material which I do not want to be affected by the the margin change. I.e. I only want the different margins for the main text of my document.

For what it's worth, I'm trying to adapt this to the "mainmatter" section of the hepthesis class (http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/help/Ca ... hesis.html).

Thanks,
F.

Take a look at the gmeometric package. It cancels the restriction to the preamble of the \geometry command provided by the geometry package. So you can use this command wherever you want and change the page layout.
