Only one Print section is created at the start, but you can add as many Print sections as you
need; see "Print sections" on page 355.
Pages
Unlike emails and web pages, Print sections can contain multiple pages. Pages are naturally
limited by their size and margins. If the content of a section doesn't fit on one page, the overflow
goes to the next page. This happens automatically, based on the section's page size and
margins; see "Page settings: size, margins and bleed" on page 363.
Although generally the same content elements can be used in all three contexts (see "Content
elements" on page 223), the specific characteristics of pages make it possible to use special
elements, such as page numbers; see "Page numbers" on page 365.
See "Pages" on page 362 for an overview of settings and elements that are specific for pages.
Headers, footers, tear-offs and repeated elements
In Print sections, there are often elements that need to be repeated across pages, like headers,
footers and logos. In addition, some elements should appear on each first page, or only on
pages in between the first and the last page, or only on the last page. Examples are a different
header on the first page, and a tear-off section that should show up on the last page.
This is what Master Pages are used for. Master Pages can only be used in the Print context.
See "Master Pages" on page 368 for an explanation of how to fill them and how to apply them
to different pages.
Stationery (Media)
When the output of a Print context is meant to be printed on paper that already has graphical
and text elements on it (called stationery, or preprinted sheets), you can add a copy of this
media, in the form of a PDF file, to the Media folder.
Media can be applied to pages in a Print section, to make them appear as a background to
those pages. This ensures that elements added to the Print context will correspond to their
correct location on the preprinted media.
When both Media and a Master Page are used on a certain page, they will both be displayed
on the Preview tab of the workspace, the Master Page being 'in front' of the Media and the Print
