bcor #CDATA Extra indentation of the text body in millimeters (mm) or points (pt) to compensate for margin space lost when binding the document
div #CDATA eCromedos uses the LATEX package KOMA-Skript to control the page layout of printed documents. KOMA-Skript automatically determines the optimal size and position of the text body for a given papersize. To that end, it divides the page into div x div rectangles of equal size which serve as the basic units for dividing the page into margins and text body. The larger you choose div, the larger the resulting text area will be.
fontsize 10pt | 11pt | 12pt Controls the font-size for print output
lang #CDATA Controls the language for automatic titles; currently one of english, german, spanish
papersize #CDATA Default is a4paper which is the standard pagesize in Germany. Other possible values are all common ISO papersizes.
secnumdepth 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 Controls to which depth section titles will be numbered. A value of zero will result in the document having no numbered sections, at all.
secsplitdepth 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 Controls to which depth of sectioning the output document will be split into individual files
tocdepth 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 Controls to which depth sections should have an entry in the table of contents; must be an integer value greater or equal to zero
