MS Office Forum / Word / Page Layout / June 2005different page setup for sections
I'm writing my Master's Thesis with Word 2002 and I have 4 sections in the document. I need to have mirror margins on the actual content and for some reason I can't make different setup for each section. I've applied the page setup to 'this section' and tried different section breaks, and yet Word always applies the setup to whole document. Many thanks for any ideas! "Mirror margins" (Margins tab of File>Page Setup) always applies to an entire document. But Word does allow you to specify *different* margin values for different sections. In other words, for the sections where you don't want mirror margins, you could simply specify an equal amount for "Inside" and "Outside" margins.

Clarification: For the sections where you don't want the visual effect of mirror margins, simply specify an equal amount for "Inside" and "Outside", on the Margins tab of File>Page Setup.

And if you don't want text to be printed with even margins you can set a negative indent for paragraphs (or paragraph styles) used in the section that should not look as a mirror margin document: To make the right margin look narrower, add a negative right indent. Conversely, to create the appearance of a smaller left margin, add a negative left indent.
