Different top and bottom margins for odd or even pages












1















I have a two-sided landscape document that I intend to bind on the long (top/bottom) edge. To leave space for the binding, I would like a larger top margin on odd-numbered pages and a larger bottom margin on even-numbered pages. How should I do this?



I can set the margins to be the same for every page with



usepackage[top=2cm, bottom=2cm, left=2cm, right=2cm, landscape]{geometry}


but adding a binding offset with



usepackage[top=2cm, bottom=2cm, left=2cm, right=2cm, bindingoffset=1cm, landscape]{geometry}


adds the extra space onto the left (odd) and right (even) margins, rather what I want: the top (odd) and bottom (even) margins.
