I'm having problem which drives me crazy.
I'm trying to make odd/even pages with different margins using option [twoside] according to this answer. Numbers in red are page numbers. The problem is, that my 9th page does not have larger left margin than the right one (as it should have as odd page and right page when opened book). I tried adding blank pages, using \cleardoublepage... Nothing helped me. My 9th page still behaves like even page - left margin lesser than the right one.
The code:
\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,twoside]{report}
\usepackage[top=2.5cm,bottom=2cm]{geometry}
\usepackage[cp1250]{inputenc}
\usepackage[czech]{babel}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{nameref}
\hypersetup{
colorlinks,
linkcolor={red!50!black},
citecolor={blue!50!black},
urlcolor={blue!80!black}
}
% Czech single quotes
% left (\clq command)
\DeclareTextCommand{\clq}{T1}{\leavevmode\char13\nobreak\hskip0pt}
% right (\crq command)
\DeclareTextCommand{\crq}{T1}{{\edef\@SF{\spacefactor\the\spacefactor}%
\nobreak\char96\@SF\relax}}
% \juv{} command
\DeclareRobustCommand\juv[1]{{\leavevmode\clq#1\crq}}
%%

So how to make the first section after chapter behave "like a proper odd page" having larger left margin than right margin?
Thank you
EDIT: Better explanation
\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,twoside]{report}
if you removetwoside
option you may have a better result (for your needs)... But if you really want the opposite of your current margins please read again my previous commend more carefully. (Think of a printed book... Where would you like to add a note on a right page... left of a right page is the center of the book)
