What I do is centering the main text on the page like
\pdfpagewidth=148.5mm
\pdfpageheight=210mm
\pdfhorigin=20.75mm
\pdfvorigin=18mm
\hsize=107mm
\vsize=173mm
and then put this centered box to the binding side of the pages by
variering \hoffset in the output routine:
\def\onepageout{\ifodd\pageno\hoffset=2mm\else\hoffset=-2mm\fi
\shipout\vbox{\makeheadline
\pagebody
\makefootline}
\advancepageno
\ifnum\outputpenalty>-20000 \else\dosupereject\fi}
I hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Marcel Korpel
