InDesign presently appears to deal with only inside and outside margins on a facing-page document. When I need to make one with different margins between verso and recto, sure, I can do it manually by dragging margins or by using different masters and flowing stuff manually, but a simple setting of verso and recto is certainly in order.
If someone has a solution you consider fairly simple, chime in. Thanks.
Hi tlmurray23:
As you may know, when you navigate to the master pages, the whole spread is selected. You can set the inside/outside margins to get a mirrored effect.
If you need different, not mirrored margins, just double click the left or right page, and set accordingly in Layout > Margins and Columns. The wording "inside/outside" remains constant but you can set the two pages independently of each other. When you return to the body pages, the left and right pages will pick up the settings from the two underlying master pages.
To avoid "flowing stuff manually" define linked primary frames while you are on the master pages.
