Right.  That's what I get also.  Your question prompted me to double
check the headers on similar files I'd produced last semester, and sure
enough I did have to use vmargin then also.  (But I don't remember whether
I had to use it because I would have otherwise had 2" margins.)

Thanks for your help.
