1Maybe one should add for clarification that from a typographical point of view it considered bad style to just set all margins to an identical fixed value. In typography the page margins are at a specific geometric relation compared to for example the page aspect ratio and other things. For some more explanation compare for example the KOMA Script Guide, Section " Fundamentals of Page Layout". – Benedikt Bauer Jan 22 '13 at 00:01

Adding this to the header of your document will set a 0.25in margin for every side of the page:
\usepackage[margin=0.25in]{geometry}
