RE: changing top margin

[Mark Stephen Mrotek]

Kieren,

Thank you for your reply and the instruction. I did it (I think) and the
first page disappeared. I suspect that I did not place the command in the
proper location. Your assistance is appreciated.

Mark

Hi Mark,

Use \bookpart around your title page - then it has its own [separate]
margins, etc.

Hope this helps!
