Creating pages from master pages
Master pages are stored in a deconstructed project’s Job Jackets file. To create a page from this master
page, insert a MASTER attribute into the
PAGE element and indicate the number of the target master page. Master page numbering is as follows:
1 = blank single page
2 = blank facing-page
3 = the first user-defined master page in the Job Jackets file (by default, the master page named
"A-Master A")
For example, to create a master page based on the first user-defined master page in the Job Jackets file,
you could use XML like the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>
<PROJECT JOBJACKET=" file://brochures/BrochureJJ.xml"
JOBTICKET="Tall US Brochure Ticket"
PROJECTNAME="project1.qxp">
<LAYOUT>
<ID NAME="Layout 1"/>
<SPREAD>
<ID UID="1" />
<PAGE MASTER="3" POSITION="LEFTOFSPINE">
<ID UID="2" />
</PAGE>
...
Note that each page has a
POSITION attribute that indicates where that page falls with regard to the spine.
