Latex - Change margins of only a few pages. For allowing the figure to be centered in the page, protruding into both margins rather than only the right margin. This usually does the trick for images. Notice that with this method, the caption of the image will still be in the delimited by the normal margins of the page (which is a good thing). Maybe 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.

Just for extra general reference, below is a qoute directly from a LaTeXtutorial.Readers from a word processing background are probably all thinking why there is so much white space surrounding the text. There is a good reason, and it's all down to readability. Have a look in a few books, and pick a few lines at random. Count the number of characters per line. I bet the average is about 66.
Studies have shown that it's easier to read text when there are 60-70 characters per line - and it would seem that 66 is the optimal number. Therefore, the page margins are set to ensure that readability remains as good as possible. White space is often left in the inner margin for the assumption that the document will be bound, and so space must be allowed for this.
