Another type of report format In Unit 8 you learned to format short, unbound reports Using the textual citation method of documentation Now you will learn how to format longer, bound reports
Bound Reports Longer reports are generally bound at the left margin The binding itself takes about one-half inch (0.5”) So the left margin is increased to 1.5” on all pages
Standard Margins Except for left margin, all other margins are the same as unbound reports Margin Settings: LM (left margin): 1.5” RM (right margin): 1” TM (top margin): First Page: 2” Remaining Pages: 1” BM (bottom margin): 1”
Bottom Margins Will Vary An exact 1” bottom margin is not always possible To avoid widow and orphan paragraphs Since some sections end without filling an entire page The bottom margin is adjustable
