Change a4 to a5

Post by templateuser »

Hi

I would like to change the paper size from a4 to a5. I tried many time like pasting
\usepackage[a5paper]{geometry} to the class file and even changing the paper to a5paper in the main file in the document class.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Arun

Hi Arun,

Adding \usepackage[a5paper]{geometry} just before \begin{document} in main.tex changed the paper size for me, however the content appeared zoomed in. I fixed this by removing \usepackage{vmargin} and the whole MARGINS block from Thesis.cls. However, the page headers are still too wide for the page. I'll leave this for you to figure out.

I tried this but it doesn't work what exactly commands I should use?
I tried also
\usepackage[a5paper,top=2cm,bottom=2cm,left = 2.5cm,right=2cm,headsep=7pt]{geometry}
in the structure.tex but still have problem with the margin.
Can anyone help me to fix this?
