I've printed books for my daughter to use at school, with line spacing wide enough to underline, and margins large enough for her to take notes in them. I use 8.5" x 5.5" pages, cut in half & bound with plastic comb binding. 1/2" margins on the inside and 1" margins on the outside; 1.3 multiple line spacing. I haven't seen any printed books that match those preferences.
