\section{Page Layout}
\seclabel{typearea}
\BeginIndexGroup
\BeginIndex{}{page>layout}

Each page of a document consists of different layout elements, such as the
margins, the header, the footer, the text area, the marginal note column, and
the distances between these elements. \KOMAScript{} additionally distinguishes
the entire page, also known as the paper, and the visible page. Without doubt,
the separation of the page into these different parts is one of the basic
features of a class\IfThisCommonLabelBase{scrlttr2}{\OnlyAt{scrlttr2}}{}.
\KOMAScript{} delegates this work to the package
\hyperref[cha:typearea]{\Package{typearea}}\IndexPackage{typearea}. This
package can also be used with other classes. The \KOMAScript{} classes,
however, load \Package{typearea} on their own. Therefore, it's neither
necessary nor sensible to load the package explicitly with \Macro{usepackage}
while using a \KOMAScript{} class. See also
\autoref{sec:\ThisCommonLabelBase.options},
\autopageref{sec:\ThisCommonLabelBase.options}.

Some settings of \KOMAScript{} classes affect the page layout and vice versa.
Those effects are documented at the corresponding settings.

For more information about the choice of paper format, the division of the
page into margins and type area, and the choice between one- and two-column
typesetting, see the documentation for the
\hyperref[cha:typearea]{\Package{typearea}}\IndexPackage{typearea}
package. You can find it in \autoref{cha:typearea}, starting on
\autopageref{cha:typearea}.
