The Text+ programs assume that the right and left margins are each about 25mm (1/2 inch) wide.
On the Format for Printing page, differences in page margins can be accommodated by the "fudge factor":

Warning about a chart formatting issue
Unlike almost every other web page, this chart cannot figure how wide the browser window (or a printed page) is,
so it cannot rewrap its text in response to chages in the browser width.
Consequently, some long lines may wrap to the left margin of the next line and break the visble flow of the chart.
The are at least a couple of ways to address this issue
Change the 'Width' selection just above to Legal or Letter Landscape.
(By the way, these widths are based on paper sizes because the general goal is to format the chart for prining.
More usefully, click the 'Format for Printing' button just above.
It will pop up a new window where you can adjust the chart width, font size, indentation level, etc.
to make sure that the chart fits well on a printed page or perhaps on the screen.
Once you find a layout that works, you can save it for later use.
Unfortunately the settings you establish for one chart might not work well for another chart that is much wider or narrower.
If you have any trouble, please click the button above for 'Printing Help'.
