A margin is the space from the edge of the page to the start of the content of a report. The TOPMARGIN subcommand is used in a SETTING command to specify the space measured from the left edge of the paper to the report content. The structure of this statement is:
SETTING { TOPMARGINY }
The numeric value is the size specified for the margin in inches, and can include up to two decimal places. The system default margin is 0.50 inches.
The following example places a one-inch margin on the top of the page.
SETTING { TOPMARGIN 1 }
The left, right, top, or bottom margin can be specified in the System Architect Report Editor using the margins section of the Page Setup dialog.
