Margins

caution

This page is a work-in-progress for Bloom 6.0.

Bloom 6.0 features “page themes” which use a new system for defining page margins. As part of this work, we took the opportunity to change the default margins to better fit what publishers of Bloom books have been using. The following table shows what changed and how the different themes handle margins.

How to read this table:

Top
Sides Gutter
Bottom

All numbers are in millimeters unless otherwise noted. “px” is an abbreviations for “pixel”. 10px = 2.645833mm
