Creating master pages

By placing a design element on a master page and then applying the master page to other pages, you ensure that all the pages incorporate the element. Of course, each individual page can have its own independent 'foreground' elements.

To create a master page:

Select Masters as the page type at the top of the Pages panel.
Do one of the following:
- Tap Add button to create a master page whose properties are the same as your document when it was created.
- Long press Add to create a master with your choice of name, layout and margins.

To edit a master page's properties:

Select Masters as the page type at the top of the Pages panel.
Long press a master page's thumbnail.
Select Spread Properties.
On the dialog that appears:
1. (Optional) To select multiple masters whose properties you wish to edit, tap their thumbnails.
2. Edit the master's name (if only one master is selected), dimensions and scaling settings as needed.
3. Tap OK.

To rearrange master page thumbnails:

Select Masters as the page type at the top of the Pages panel.
Tap Manage Masters.
(Optional) Tap the masters you wish to move to select them.
Long press the masters you wish to move to pick them up.
Drag and drop the masters to a new position.
