Arrange pages

Pages can be arranged using drag and drop, which is ideal when the destination is near the pages' current position.

Moving pages further is more easily done by specifying the destination on a dialog.

Arranging pages using drag and drop

When dragging page thumbnails:

A blue insertion point indicates the where the pages will be positioned if dropped.
The cursor indicates whether pages will be inserted as new spreads or extend the targeted spread and position.

Available positions vary according to whether Reflow Pages (on the Pages panel's preferences menu) is enabled or disabled.

When Reflow Pages is enabled, pages will reflow starting at whichever is earliest—either the first page in the selection or the position where you drop—through to the end of your document.

When Reflow Pages is disabled, pages will not automatically reflow. This may result in 'ghost' pages.

To move pages (using drag and drop):

On the Pages panel:

Drag one or more publication pages or a master page.
Hover where you want to move the pages and drop when the cursor indicates the required action will be performed.

To move publication pages (via dialog):

On the Pages panel:
1. Select one or more publication pages¹.
2. -click one of the selected pages and select Move/Copy Pages.
On the dialog that appears:
1. Specify the destination Page number, and whether to insert the selection Before or After it.
2. Select Move.
3. Select OK.

¹ Alternatively, you can specify the pages later, by typing their numbers on the dialog.
