<xsl:param name="body.margin.outer">0in</xsl:param>

Description

The outer body margin is the extra outer side (opposite the binding side) margin taken from the body region in addition to the outer page margin. It makes room for a side region for text content whose width is specified by the region.outer.extent parameter.

For double-sided output, this side region is fo:region-end on a odd-numbered page, and fo:region-start on an even-numbered page.

For single-sided output, this side region is fo:region-end for all pages.

This correspondence applies to all languages, both left-to-right and right-to-left writing modes.

The default value is zero.
