You can use "Mirror margins" to give you a wide margin on the outside. If

I am trying to create a student manual that will include a notes column on
the 'outside' of the page. For the even pages I need to have the notes
column on the left and for the odd pages I need the notes column on the
right.

How in the world do I accomplish this?

Thank you so much for any assistance you can provide.
