Setting up a publication
A publication's page size, orientation and intent settings are
fundamental to your layout, and are defined when the new publication is
first created, either using a design template or as a new publication.
To adjust size/orientation of the current publication:
1. Select
Publication Setup from the Pages context toolbar.
2. Ensure the Paper menu option is selected. The other option,
Margins, lets you define non-printable Margin, Row, Column, and
Bleed Guides as design aids.
3. For a Regular/Booklet Publication, you can select a pre-defined
paper size, printer-derived paper size, or enter custom values for
page Width and Height, as well as setting the orientation (Portrait
or Landscape). For booklets only, select a type from the Booklet
drop-down list, which page to start on (left/right), and if you
require Facing pages (including Dual master pages). PagePlus
automatically performs imposition.
4. For other publication types, you can select: Small Publications (for
example, business cards, labels, etc.), Large Publications (banners
or posters), or Folded Publications (cards).
• For Small publications, enable Paper and choose a pre-defined
option from the list, or for creating Labels, enable the radio button
and pick an Avery label code which matches your labels.
• For Large and Folded publications, choose a pre-defined option
from the list (use the preview).
5. Click OK to accept the new dimensions. The updated settings will
be applied to the current publication.
Be sure to set an appropriate Intent for your publication.
