\NeedsTeXFormat{LaTeX2e} \ProvidesPackage{setpaper}[1994/08/01 Command to set the paper size.] %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % The purspose of this package is to allow us to describe the format of % % a page in terms of the traditional dimensions, rather than the ones % % TeX uses. To use the package, simply set appropriate values for the % % dimensions described below and then call "\setpaper", this will set the % % TeX page description. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % First we define the dimensions of the paper. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % \newlenth{\paperwidth} % These are now included in LaTeX2e % \newlenth{\paperheight} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Now we define the adjustment for the binding. % % Use this dimension to say how much of the page will be consumed by the % % binding process. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newlength{\binding} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Next we define the size of the margins. % % % % Because the units traditionally used to specify margins are different % % from (and not exactly compatable with) the units traditionally used to % % specify the paper, it is usual to only specify the back margin and % % head margin and infer the size of the other margins from % % these margins and the type size (see below). % % % % The back margin is the one from the binding to the edge of the text. % % The head margin is the one at the top of the page. % % % % Note that the figure for the back margin will only be used if the % % document is in twosided mode. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newlength{\backmargin} \newlength{\headmargin} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Next we define the type size. % % % % Note that the type area include all printed matter on the page, % % that is it includes the header and footer as well. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newlength{\typewidth} \newlength{\typeheight} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Next we define the size of the header and the footer. % % % % We will give both the size of the text of the header and footer % % (\headsize and \footsize) and the amount of white space between the % % the header and footer, and the body of the text (\headgap, \footgap). % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newlength{\headsize} \newlength{\headgap} \newlength{\footsize} \newlength{\footgap} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % TeX does not use these standards for describing the appearance of % % a page. Instead it uses the following lengths to describe how your % % page should look: % % \oddsizemargin % % Space from the left edge of an odd numbered page to the body % % of the text. % % \evensidemargin % % Space from the left edge of an even numbered page to the body % % of the text. % % \topmargin % % Space from the top of the page to the type area. % % \headheight % % Space devoted to the running header. % % \headsep % % Space between the running header and the body of the text. % % \footskip % % Distance from the bottom of the body of the text to the % % bottom of the first line of the running footer. % % The gap between the foot text and the body of the text will % % therefore be \footskip - \baselineskip. % % \textwidth % % The width of the text on the page. % % \textheight % % The height of the body of the text (does not include headers % % or footers). % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newcommand{\setpaper}{ %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % If we are using PDF LaTeX we need to tell it how big the paper is. % % Why it doesn't use the same variables as ordinary LaTeX god only knowns. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \@ifundefined{pdfpagewidth}{}{ \setlength{\pdfpagewidth}{\paperwidth} \setlength{\pdfpageheight}{\paperheight} } %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % So TeX doesn't have to do some much streching, we will shrink the % % type height a little until it is a multiple of \baselineskip. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \newcount{\linecount} \linecount=\typeheight \divide\linecount by \baselineskip \setlength{\typeheight}{\baselineskip} \multiply\typeheight by \linecount %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % We do not want the standard 1 inch margins, so before we begin we will % % set the margins so that they allign with the top left corner of the % % paper. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \setlength{\topmargin}{-1truein} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-1truein} \setlength{\evensidemargin}{-1truein} %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% % Now we set TeX's parameters so that they describe the page we want. % %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% \if@twoside \addtolength{\oddsidemargin}{\binding} \addtolength{\oddsidemargin}{\backmargin} \addtolength{\evensidemargin}{\paperwidth} \addtolength{\evensidemargin}{-\binding} \addtolength{\evensidemargin}{-\backmargin} \addtolength{\evensidemargin}{-\typewidth} \else \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{\paperwidth} \addtolength{\oddsidemargin}{-\typewidth} \addtolength{\evensidemargin}{0.5\oddsidemargin} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{\evensidemargin} \addtolength{\evensidemargin}{-\binding} \addtolength{\oddsidemargin}{\binding} \fi \addtolength{\topmargin}{\headmargin} \setlength{\headheight}{\headsize} \setlength{\headsep}{\headgap} \setlength{\footskip}{\footgap} \addtolength{\footskip}{\baselineskip} \setlength{\textwidth}{\typewidth} \setlength{\textheight}{\typeheight} \addtolength{\textheight}{-\headsize} \addtolength{\textheight}{-\headgap} \addtolength{\textheight}{-\footgap} \addtolength{\textheight}{-\footsize} }
