I need to make a document with precisely set margins (for camera-ready 
copy).  I cannot figure out how to control the margin in LaTEX.  (I have
the Amiga Radical Eye version, but the problem is exactly the same on our Sun
at work.)  \hsize sets the line length, but it does not produce output
centered on the page.  There is an extra about 1 inch offset which, I 
guess must come from the \documentstyle{article} macro; but, how can I 
change it?

I have all of the manuals, but cannot find anything helpful.  I would be very
greatful for the answer.
