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 page535.
See "Media" on page91 for further explanation about how to add Media and how to apply them
to different pages.
