This command specifies left and right margin positions. The n
1
and
n
2
parameters indicate respectively the number of columns for the left
and right margins at the current spacing. These margins are
memorized in terms of absolute displacement from the physical left
edge of the page.
If n
1
is equal to 0, the current left margin of the page is used. If n
2
is equal
to 0, the current right margin of the page is used. The left margin value
must be less than the right margin value. The right margin value must
not exceed the physical right edge of the paper; otherwise the maximum
acceptable value for the right margin will be set.
