Thanks.

Now I've rebuilt the docs, I've changed my mind slightly. :)

+Default margin values are accessible in
address@hidden/@/paper@/-defaults@/-init@/.ly}.  They apply to the default
+paper size (a4, unless specified differently) and are scaled
+accordingly for other paper sizes.  This currently affects:
address@hidden
address@hidden @var{left-margin}
address@hidden @var{right-margin}
address@hidden @var{top-margin}
address@hidden @var{bottom-margin}
address@hidden @var{head-separation}
address@hidden @var{foot-separation}
address@hidden @var{indent}
address@hidden @var{short-indent}

(missing an @end itemize)

It looks a bit strange to mention these right at the start of this
section; I think they'd be more at home in `Horizontal dimensions'.

+The settings for @code{line-width}, @code{left-margin},
address@hidden and @code{paper-width} depend on
+each other, but they do not have to be specified
+completely.

This discussion reads as if the user's already familiar with the paper
variables, but it's positioned above them.
