I am attempting to increase the left margin of my page(s) by a specific amount (10 pt) but this functionality does not seem to exist in the geometry
package. Every answer I've seen that refers to changing the left margin recommends setting it explicitly by doing
\usepackage[left=XXpt]{geometry}
or
\newgeometry{left=XXpt}
This is with the exception of one answer which talked about using the \addtolength
command. This would be ideal except I have tried this with several length names formed as variations of the words "left" and "margin" as its argument but none had the desired result (moving the text out from what it was by 10 pt).
Can anyone inform me of the best/recommended method of doing this? If it involves using \addtolength
, what is the name of the length given as the argument?
Thank you in advance.

environment.geometry
doesn't enable to change of existing margin for some amount. you should define new value for it. however you change margins for some amount with help of packagechangepage
as mentioned @Bernard in his comment. but this changes has some restriction. provide please some example in form of small, but complete document, which will clarify your question.\noindent\hspace{...}\begin{minipage}{\dimexpr\textwidth-...}
You might consider creating you own list environment.
