% Style file to assist in generating a University
% of Tasmania PhD thesis at the Institute for Marine and Antarctic Studies. 
% Contains all the required formatting options and header/footer information 
% that is set out in the
% Research Higher Degrees Resource Handbook (2003 version)
% This file should be easily modifiable to comply with
% minor formatting changes (such as the left margin width etc.)

% First set the required page format...margins, text widths etc.
% Note 1in=2.54cm and LaTeX has a fixed border of 1in on top and left
% margins so we need to take this into account when calculating sizes.
% Set the top margin to be 1inch from the paper edge.
\setlength{\topmargin}{0.0cm}
% Set the header-body separation level
\setlength{\headsep}{1.0cm}
% Set the footskip to be 1 cm
\setlength{\footskip}{1cm}
% Set the header height to be 1cm
\setlength{\headheight}{1cm}
% Set the bottom margin to be 1 inch from the paper edge by
% way of the \paperheight and \textheight commands
% First set up a new length called \textheit
\newlength{\textheit}
% Set the value of \textheit to the total paper height for
% the paper size declared in the \documentclass command
\setlength{\textheit}{\paperheight}
% Subtract off 1 inch from top and bottom of the paper
\addtolength{\textheit}{-2.0in}
% Subtract off the \topmargin height
\addtolength{\textheit}{-\topmargin}
% Subtract off the \headheight height
\addtolength{\textheit}{-\headheight}
% Subtract off the \headsep height
\addtolength{\textheit}{-\headsep}
% Subtract off the \footskip height
\addtolength{\textheit}{-\footskip}
% Finally, set the text height to that calculated above
\setlength{\textheight}{\textheit}
% Set the text to flush to the bottom of each page
%\flushbottom

% Uncomment the following lines (all lines that start with \...)
% if you want even and odd pages to look alike.
% Set the odd and even left margins to be 4.5cm from paper edge.
% Note that 4.50cm-2.54cm=1.96cm
%\setlength{\oddsidemargin}{1.96cm}
%\setlength{\evensidemargin}{1.96cm}
% Set the right margin to be 1 inch from the paper edge by
% way of the \paperwidth and \textwidth commands
% First set up a new length called \textwid
%\newlength{\textwid}
% Set the value of \textwid to the total paper width for
% the paper size declared in the \documentclass command
%\setlength{\textwid}{\paperwidth}
% Subtract off 1 inch from each side of the paper
%\addtolength{\textwid}{-2.0in}
% Subtract off the \oddsidemargin width
%\addtolength{\textwid}{-\oddsidemargin}
% Finally, set the text width to that calculated above
%\setlength{\textwidth}{\textwid}
% Set the paragraph spacing
%\setlength{\parskip}{6pt}
% Set the paragraph indentation level
%\setlength{\parindent}{0pt}
