text *different from all the rest of the text*. While I am grateful for your giving your knowledge, I confess I find your means of expression obscure. In order to understand these things, one needs to know exactly where in the document, relative to the desired changes, these things need to go (relative to \begin{document} or whatever). And it would help further is you could say something like <BLAH> in order to show the space in the document where the text affected by the command, or whatever it is you talk about, should go. For example, could you advise on the suitable insertions here:
\documentclass[10pt, A4]{article}
<I would like to say something in different margins than what I have stated <Now I would like to say something in precisely the margins I have stated in \end{document}
