In many of these screen captures I’ve trimmed down what isn’t relevant in the interest of space and readability, don’t be surprised if your screen lays out slightly differently. To start, open up the Kindle app on your device: Not only can you change the size of the type, you can actually change typeface in case a serif or san-serif face is more to your liking, change the leading (the space between lines) and the margins to have the electronic display be perfect for your own visual acuity and reading preferences!
Sure there’s the “Large Type” editions, but an ebook reader like the Amazon Kindle is really such a win by comparison because of how much you can fine-tune your reading experience. Get a book from the local library and if the type’s too small, well, then you’ll just have to suffer. In the “Page Setup” window that appears, customize your margins and then select “Set As Default” in the bottom-left corner of the page.One of the great advantages of ebooks is that unlike a printed book you aren’t at the mercy of the design and layout sense of the printer. In the drop-down menu that appears, select “Custom Margin.” To do so, select “Margins” in the “Page Setup” group of the “Layout” tab. If you’re finding yourself using the same custom margins over and over, instead of setting the margins each time you open Word, you can just set your custom margins as the default. Once you’re done, select “OK” to apply the changes. Simply adjust the margin by selecting the up or down arrow next to the option. Setting the gutter margin works the same way as setting the page margin.
The gutter margin is generally used in facing-pages layouts (known as “Mirrored” in Word) and refers to the area of the page that is rendered unusable or unviewable due to the binding process. This increases or decreases the page margins by 0.1-inch increments. Under the “Margins” section, you can adjust the top, bottom, left, and right margins by clicking the up and down arrows next to each option. The “Page Setup” window will now appear, in which you’ll automatically be in the “Margins” tab.
