Default Preparing document for binding - wider margin on binding edge
Edit: never mind; I've found that this is what 'Gutter' margin is for!

I am writting a dissertation for my course of study and there are style requirements which I don't know how to meet using MS Word unless I print single-sided. It would be more economical for me to print double-sided so I'd like to do that if possible. The requirements are:

4cm binding margin
2cm head margin
2.5cm fore-edge margin
4cm tail margin

This means that all odd-numbered pages have the 4 cm binding margin on the left and all even-numbered pages have the 4 cm binding margin on the right. How do I accomplish this efficiently in MS Word 2016 (or 365)?
