In particular with \LaTeX{}, it can help if you create an MWE (minimal working example) when working with new things, to rule out interference from other bits of code.
|

|

For example, the preamble to this document is currently 135 lines. (This includes blank lines to make it easy to scan.) But if I were trying to diagnose some page layout issues with the \texttt{geometry} package, an MWE might look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{Verbatim}[frame=lines, numbers=left, xleftmargin=5mm, framesep=3mm, breaklines=true, label=MWE Example]
|
||||
\documentclass[twoside, 9pt]{extreport}
|
||||
\usepackage[
|
||||
paperheight=8.5in,
|
||||
paperwidth=5.5in,
|
||||
margin=0.5in
|
||||
]{geometry}
|
||||
\usepackage{lipsum}
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{document}
|
||||
\lipsum[1-20]
|
||||
\end{document}
|
||||
\end{Verbatim}
|
||||
|
||||
I now have 11 lines to deal with instead of the current 1,129 lines I have. This means I am focused solely on solving this issue with the \texttt{geometry} package and nothing else. If I suspect that another package is causing the problem, I can always add in that package and run a test with it. And because I am only loading two packages, the pdf compiles very quickly.
