Add, arrange and remove pages

The number of pages in your document can be determined at document setup. After this, the Pages panel is used to add more publication pages and master pages to your publication. Once created, pages can be rearranged, removed and duplicated from the panel's Manage Pages section.

The panel's topmost item switches between displaying master pages and publication pages.

About master pages

Master pages act like templates, in that a master page can be shared by multiple publication pages. If you edit a master page at a later date, then all other pages to which it has been applied will update to the new design instantly, although you can override master page content and design at any time.
