When I fooled around with these settings (trying to format my book to fit on a Kindle DX) I noticed that PDF export did not honor these settings anyway. I assume this is a bug in TeXmacs. So I would check if the *exported* file satisfies your editor's requirements.

hi everyonei start writing a book for a parisian editori am asked to do this :written area of text in a rectangle with dimensions 12,5*21,5; pages with format 16,5*24------- in french ------surface écrite du texte comprise dans un cadre de dimension : 12,5 x 21,5 cm (en-tête ou bas de pages compris).La taille de police pourrait être agrandie.Pour information le format du livre sera de 16,5 x 24 cm.-------------------------i want to be sure that what i do now before beginning is correct. I want to avoid doing false things that would oblige me later to start again everythingfor the dimensions i went to- document/page/dimensions/Other i type 16,5*24and for the margin (what seems to be the most important for the printer)- document/page/margin/alternative specification/width i type 12,5- document/page/margin/margin top i type 1,25- document/page/margin/margin bottom i type 1,25because 24-1,25-1,25=21,5i guess - am i false ? - that the alternative specification/width gives an absolute widthbut that maybe, since there is no alternative specification fot height, maybe it would mean that the height can move with the number, size, of lines and equations..my obligation is absolutly never getting over the dimensiosn i was given : written area of text in a rectangle with dimensions 12,5*21did i do right ?Sacha
