Hello,
The code which I have attached below properly has the margins working
in Portrait mode. The margin is contained in an object called
settings. The behavior is that the top and bottom margins work
correctly in both Landscape and Portrait. The left margin ends up
being large, around 2.5 inches, in Landscape mode, while in Portrait
it correctly is at .25 inches.
I was careful to set the orientation first, then the rest of the
paperformat and paper settings. So I am confused as to why it is not
working. Any help would be great! Thanks for all the help in
advance.
