Headers, footers, tear-offs and repeated elements (Master
page)
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 slip 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 page71 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
section on top. To open the Preview tab, click it at the bottom of the Workspace or select View >
Preview View on the menu.
The Media will not be printed, unless this is specifically requested through the printer settings in
the Print Wizard; see "Generating Print output" on page490.
See "Media" on page75 for further explanation about how to add Media and how to apply them
to different pages.
Creating a Print template with a Wizard
A Print template may consist of various parts, such as a covering letter and a policy. Start with
one of the Template Wizards for the first part; other parts can be added later.
