User manual

All pages in the selected layouts have the same margins.
● Different
Left and right pages in the selected layouts can have completely different margins.
● Mirrored
Left and right pages in the selected layouts use the same margin values but they
correspond to inside/outside edges of pages.
Music frames in the default master pages have padding that ensures musical material displayed
within the frame remains on the page. For example, if music frames have no padding, the top
line on the top staff in the frame is positioned at the top of the frame. Any notes that require
ledger lines above the staff might then be positioned off the top of the page. You can change the
padding of all music frames in each layout in Layout Options.
