The macros probably already have a .wh 0 trap, so you may need to
work around that problem. That's why I prefer hacking the actual
top-of-page macro.

offset accordingly. Just make sure you do it before anything
gets sent to output storage for post-process
Thanks to Raph and Ted for their help in my last question. Now I have
another one. I need different left and right margins on odd- and
