Omit Master Page Back in case of an empty back page to omit the specified Master
Page on the last backside of a section if that page is empty and to skip that page from the
page count.
5. Optionally, decide which Media should be linked to each sheet.
6. Click OK to save the settings and close the dialog.
Deleting a Master Page
To delete a Master Page, expand the Master pages folder on the Resources pane, right-click
the master page, and click Delete.
Note that one Master Page as well as one Media must always exist in a Print template. Just
leave it empty if you don't need it.
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.
For further explanation about how to apply Media to different pages, see "Applying Media to a
page in a Print section" on page104.
Media will not be printed, unless you want them to; see below.
Per Media, a front and back can be specified and you can specify on what kind of paper the
output is meant to be printed on. This includes paper weight, quality, coating and finishing; see
"Setting Media properties" on the facing page.
Adding Media
To add a Media, right-click the Media folder on the Resources pane and select New Media.
The new Media is of course empty. You can specify two PDF files for the Media: one for the
front, and, optionally, another for the back.
