Thee A3s will be prepared on two A4 pages, as indicated in this template, which can be printed on facing pages in a spiral book. Thee way the margins are set should not be changed. Notice that the margins are mirrored because the spiral binding will be placed in the middle of the two pages. YOU MAY NOT RUN BEYOND 2 PAGES. Thee internal margins for the A3 are 2.5 cm and all the other margins are 1.5 cm. You can use photos, figgures, graphs, and tables to illustrate your ideas.
