1. First insert elements that form the header or footer, such as the company logo and
address, on the Master Page; see "Editing a Master Page" on the previous page.
2. Next, define the margins for the header and footer. The margins for a header and footer
are set in the Master Page properties. This does not change the content placement within
the Master Page itself; in Master Pages, elements can go everywhere on the page.
Instead, the header and footer of the Master Page limit the text flow on pages in the Print
sections to which this Master Page is applied. Pages in a Print section that use this
Master Page cannot display content in the space that is reserved by the Master Page for
the header and footer, so that content in the Print section does not collide with the content
of the header and footer. To set a margin for the header and/or footer:
1.
On the Resources pane, expand the Master pages folder, right-click the master
page, and click Properties.
2. Fill out the height of the header and/or the footer. The contents of a print section will
not appear in the space reserved for the header and/or footer on the corresponding
master page.
3. Finally, apply the master page to a specific page in a print section. See "Applying a
Master Page to a page in a Print section" below.
Applying a Master Page to a page in a Print section
Every sheet in a Print section has a natural position: it can be the first, the last, one of the
sheets in between ('middle'), or a single sheet. For each of these positions, you can set a
different Master Page and Media (see "Media" on the next page). It can even have two master
pages, if printing is done on both sides (called duplex printing).
To apply Master Pages to specific page positions in a Print section:
1.
On the Resources pane, expand the Print context; right-click the Print section, and click
Sheet configuration.
2.
Optionally, check Duplex to enable content to be printed on the back of each sheet. Your
printer must support duplex for this option to work. If Duplex is enabled, you can also
check Tumble to duplex pages as in a calendar, and Facing pages to have the margins
of the section switch alternately, so that pages are printed as if in a magazine or book.
3.
If the option Same for all positions is checked, the same Master Page will be applied to
every page in the print section (and to both the front and the back side of the page if
duplex printing is enabled). Uncheck this option.
