Viewing Master Pages
To view and work on a book theme’s master pages, you must show the master pages in
the Master Pages pane.
To show master pages
µ
Choose Show Master Pages from the Book Action pop-up menu (with a gear icon) in the
Book Layout Editor.
The Master Pages pane appears above the Pages pane, showing thumbnails of the master
pages for the selected theme. You can select master pages in the Master Pages pane to
display and work on them. You can drag the border between the Master Pages pane and
the Pages pane to resize the pane display.
To hide master pages
µ
Choose Hide Master Pages from the Book Action pop-up menu (with a gear icon) in the
Book Layout Editor.
Creating and Modifying Master Pages
You can create new master pages, or you can duplicate existing master pages and modify
them. For example, if you decide to customize a two-photo layout from an original master
page design, you can save the customized version and have multiple two-photo layouts
from which you can choose. Once you create a new master page, the master page name
appears in the Set Master Page pop-up menu, where you can choose it to apply the
design to pages in your book.
Note: You cannot modify the master pages for cover pages.
To create a new master page design
1 Choose Show Master Pages from the Book Action pop-up menu (with a gear icon) in the
Book Layout Editor.
2 Select a master page in the Master Pages pane.
3 Choose Add New Page from the Add Pages pop-up menu.
The new master page appears in the Master Pages pane underneath the page you selected
in step 2.
4 If you want to rename the page, double-click its title and type a new name.
5 Select the new master page and make your changes.
