InDesignMultiPages rev 03/31/2015
Multi-page documents + Master pages
Objectives:
More text frames Creating and using Master Pages Creating multi-page documents Automatically adding page numbers Using Layers Adding Effects to text and other objects
Goal: Create this:
Multi-Pages Page 1
Using Master Pages
We will have 1 or 2 A Master page is really just a template for the layout of the document pages.
Will create a 5 page document with: 3 spreads (a spread is how many pages you can see
at a time, one or two), By default, there are two master pages…one applied
to odd numbered pages (aka. right facing), a second for even numbered (aka.left facing) pages.
Start InDesign Reset Essentials workspace
Check Preferences Edit>Preferences>Units and Increments and set
Origin to Page, and inches for Ruler units
Origin: Page. This way, each page will go from 0” to 8.5, if you choose spread, the ruler will go from 0”-17”
Multi-Pages Page 2
Click OK
Start a new Document File>New>Document, Or choose New Document from the opening screen:
Values: 5 pages .5” margins (the default) Click the Facing Pages check box One column Other defaults are OK
Multi-Pages Page 3
Click OK
Ctrl- to zoom out (ctrl-) and view all three spreads:
Window>Pages to open the Pages panel, or click Pages panel icon:
Multi-Pages Page 4
Then:
Shows three Spreads , and two Master pages Has cover page (page 1...think magazine cover) and two, 2-page spreads, the pages face each other
Multi-Pages Page 5
We have right…odd… (pages 1,3,5) and left facing pages (2 and 4)
Outside the document is a scratch area. Put items there might need later, like a logo
Open these panels: Transform
(Window>Object and Layout>Transform) Window>Type and Table>Character Window>Type and Table> Paragraph Window>Layers
Dock Character and Paragraph panels
Be sure Pages panel open also
We can view: a single page (click the desired page in the Pages
Panel to turn it blue)
Multi-Pages Page 6
Or we can view a spread consisting of two pages (click the numbers )
To view single page after selecting it: View>Fit Page in Window
To view a spread after selecting it in the Pages panel: View>Fit Spread in Window
In the Pages panel, double click the 2-3 spread...both pages should turn blue/gray.
And the first 2-page spread shows up (Or View>Fit Spread in Window):
Multi-Pages Page 7
Look at the rulers…the horizontal ruler goes from 0-8.5” on each page.
This is because we chose Page as origin option. What if we had selected Spread: the Rulers would go 0”-17”
Look at the Master page area:
Multi-Pages Page 8
If we put something in the A Master, right page, that content will show in every right facing (odd) pages 1,3, and 5...
To add something to a regular page (i.e. NOT a Master), select the page and add content, as we did in the single-page module.
Goal: To add a small Text Frame at the top of Page 1, against the right margin…2”down ,as you can see below:
Multi-Pages Page 9
The Steps Select Page 1:
Turns blue View>Fit Page in Window Select the text frame tool To help position the text frame in the x direction, select
any reference point on the right side of the Transform panel: upper right corner best)
Q: Is the concept of the reference points clear?
Draw the text frame (box).
Multi-Pages Page 10
Transform Settings:
Need (x,y) and H,W values
X value calculation: 8.5 inches for width of page, and - .5 for margin, so right edge of text box should be 8 inches…x=8.0
Choose any reference point along the top row. (Mine was already selected)
Want the top of the box to be down 2”, so Y=2” Size: W:4.5”, H:1”
Summary: H: 1 W=4.5 X=8”, Y=2
Your Transform palette should have these values
Multi-Pages Page 11
Note: You will later add a title at the top of each page via a master page. That’s why we started the text frame 2” down
General Rule: On right-facing pages, push stuff to the right (chapter titles, page numbers,…). Opposite for left-facing pages
Think of a book…the page numbers on the left side align left, and vice versa for pages on the right..
Inside the text frame, on page 1, type: This is Page 1
Change font (to Trajan Pro), size 24 points… o It capitalized the letterso Can use Control bar or the Character panel
Multi-Pages Page 12
Or use Control bar:
Use the Paragraph panel to right-justify the text inside the text frame…Page 1 is a right-facing page
We’re going to add content to the remaining odd numbered pages (3,5)
Multi-Pages Page 13
Click the Selection tool (black arrow) to exit text mode
Or, choose Edit>Deselect All Goal: Create content for Page #3; and Page # 5 using copy, Paste in Place
Select the Text frame you just created (on Page 1) Edit >Copy
Select Page 3 Edit>Paste in Place Change the text to say This is Page 3
Goal: Page # 5 Content Repeat the paste in place process
Even Pages Next..can’t use Paste in Place: We want this text to be left-justified
Page # 2 first
Just do a regular Copy/PasteMulti-Pages Page 14
Select the box on Page 1, Ctrl-C, then switch to Page 2, (Double-click on Page 2 symbol) and Paste (Ctrl-V)
The text box appears in the middle of the page. We need to reposition it….
Transform:
Select any reference point along the left side of the Reference points and specify x=.5, y=2 :
Left-justify the text inside the box
Change the text to say Page 2: Use the paragraph panel to left-justify the text inside
the box for page 2
Multi-Pages Page 15
Repeat the copy/paste in place process for Page # 4 (ie, copy from page 2, Edit>paste in place on page 4)
Zoom out to see entire pasteboard
Now, select the 2-3 spread (double-click), and choose View>Fit Spread in Window
Multi-Pages Page 16
If text too small to display, shows Greeking instead…
Review: we have 5 pages, each with a text box filled with varying kinds of text
Save as Multipage.indd
Master page concept
Goal: Show the same content on every page via a master pageCan have several master pages…default is two pages (Ignore the “none” master)
Multi-Pages Page 17
Masters are created/modified in top section of the pages palette, as you can see above
See the “A” on each page?…means the A-Master is being applied automatically
Goal: Add a title at the top of every page
Double-click the A-master words
Shows two blank master pages
We will start with a single master page; i.e.delete one we don’t need.Multi-Pages Page 18
Right-click on the A-Master label, o Choose Master Options for A- Master:
Enter values below:
For now, we’re going to use only one master page, not two. We don’t HAVE to have a master for left and a separate one for right facing pages
Change the Name to Master Title Change Number of pages to 1 Clicked OK Should see:
Multi-Pages Page 19
View the Master full-screen—double-click on the blue page icon, or View>Fit Page in Window
Looks like any other page You are going to add a text frame at the top of the
Master Title master page.
InDesign will automatically assign the revised master to every page that uses that master (“A”). . . i.e. all of them
Create a new text frame at the very top of the Master 1.25 inches tall, 7.5”wide (extend from margin to margin )
Upper left reference values: X=.5 Y=.5 H:.1.25 W:7.5
Why are x,y = .5?, not zero?
Multi-Pages Page 20
Paper is 8 ½ inches wide; and we have a left and right margin of .5 inches, leaving 7.5 (Width)
Type: This is my title Change font to Trajan Pro , size 36 points
In the Paragraph panel, click left Align
Multi-Pages Page 21
Want to leave some space to the right of the text for a logo.
Select the text and choose Character panel and bring baseline down 7 points (-7) so text is not up against top margin:
Result:
Multi-Pages Page 22
Deselect everything (Edit>Deselect all), or Selection tool, then click away
Add a Drop Shadow… Select the text frame , not the actual text using the Selection tool,
and then:o Object>Effects>Drop Shadow
