How do you disable the binding compensation in KOMAscript (e.g. \documentclass[BCOR10mm]{scrbook}) on the titlepage? I use the titlepage package and the fullsizetitle environment, but this is not enough to remove binding compensation.

That said, I realize that are are settings in which you still want to have binding compensation, even on the titlepage.

Use \KOMAoptions{BCOR=0mm} at a given point, and then revert it back to whatever value you want after \maketitle.

Be aware that typearea will complain, calling it a “dirty hack”.

\documentclass{scrbook}
\usepackage{mwe}% to create dummy text with \blindtext, \Blinddocumet
\usepackage{showframe}% to print the typearea as a frame
\title{Title}
\author{A.\,Uthor}
\begin{document}
\KOMAoptions{BCOR=0mm}
\maketitle
\KOMAoptions{BCOR=20mm}
\Blinddocument
\end{document}

  • Thanks, that worked. Though, typearea yields some warnings now, but I think I can live with them - especially as I know that using two different documents and combining them afterwards would be the cleaner solution. – shiin Sep 27 '13 at 12:13
