Pages 5.2.2 difficulty creating different headers (as in APA format)

What is a simple way to have a different header on p. 1? APA format requires it. I try and try... I create different sections to achieve this... when I do, the page number starts over at 1. I think I got it before, but I can never remember all the steps.
The previous version of Pages allowed me to specify that p. 1 would be different. That was one step -- simple.

Add a line shape.
From the Help page:
Add and edit shapes
After you add a shape to a page, you can customise the shape in a number of ways. For example, you can change the standard five-point star into a twenty-point starburst, adjust how rounded the corners of a square are, add text inside a shape and more.
Add a shape
Click Shape in the toolbar.Click the arrows to see more shape styles.
Select a shape to add it to the page.

How do you create different headers on each page of a document in icloud pages?

I have to have a different header on my title page than the rest of my paper. I believe I did it once before but it may have been in the regular pages program on my Macbook Pro. I was wondering if there was a way to do it on the icloud and ipad versions of pages due to I do most of my work away from my laptop.
Thanks!

I found on my computer, if you click on the header you can change it on each page. There is also a place in Set Up under Sections at the bottom of the page that has a drop down to create a new Section either 'Starting with this section' or 'After this section'. Hope this helps. Also at the top there is a place under Headers & Footers to choose either 'hide on first page of section' or 'match previous section'. I believe if you deselect the 'match previous section' you can easily change the header or footer for each page.

How can I create different headers in Pages 09?

I hope someone can explain to me how to solve this issue: I'm creating a simple training manual and I want the different chapters to appear in the header of the page - Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc. Left and right pages are different because the margin has to be different for binding. Chapter 1 ended on an even page (a "left page.") I inserted a Section break at the bottom of that even-numbered page hoping to start a new section on the next page (odd numbered), and change the header to Chapter 2. However, to my surprise, when I changed the header to Chapter 2, all the previous headers for odd-numbred pages also changed to Chapter 2. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
On the Layout inspector, under Section, I only have checked the option "Left and right pages are different." Everything else is unchecked. I'm using version 4.2 of Pages 09 under Mountain Lion OSX.

"Left and right pages are different because the margin has to be different for binding.
Chapter 1 ended on an even page (a "left page.") I inserted a Section break at the bottom of that even-numbered page hoping to start a new section on the next page (odd numbered), and change the header to Chapter 2. "
For the specifications above, the Inspector settings for Section 2 should be as shown in the image below:
Section break at the end of the text for Chapter 1. If you have "Section starts on" set to "Right Page" your next section will start on the first recto page after the section break, inserting a blank page if necessary. You can also set this menu (red arrow) to start the next section on Any page (it will start on the next available page) or the next Left page (it will start on the lext verso page—an unusual setting).
Page numbers may "Coontinue from previous section" or may re-start for this section, beginning with a value you set in the box (purple arrow).
Left and Right are different (green arrow) allows a different header or footer on facing pages (eg. Book Title on verso, Chapter title and page number on recto). Note that this setting does not change 'Right' and 'Left' margin options to "Inside" and "Outside." That change is made by checking the Facing Pages checkbox in the Document Inspector.
Finally, unchecking 'Use Previous headers & footers" allows editing the headers and footers in one section without changing those for the previous section. Note that the edits will take effect in the section containing the insertion point when the edit is made.

Create different Headers and common footer.

Hello everybody,
Recently i was asked to use robohelp to create webhelp. Right now am stuck with a part where, in each of topics i need to have topic name as header and a button at footer in all topic files. for the common button, can make use of master page. but when it comes to header, is ther any way to have different header names for each topics. if am using master page, then it only allows me to use common names for all.
ANy help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
HIthesh

Hi,
You want the name of the topic (xxx.htm) to show in the top of your page? You can use a variable for that. (Insert > User Defined Variable ) You can add the variable to the master page and the variable takes the correct value according to the page name. You can add the page name, page title, date/time or a custom variable.

Willam

How to insert different headers/footers according to recto/verso format in Pages 5.0 ?

I formatted a document on Pages '09 with two different headers and footers because I print it recto/verso. When I opened this document with Pages 5.0 my headers/footers do no longer appeared and when I try to re-put it, I did not find where I could make them different according to a recto/verso format. Previously this function was situated in the section tab of the inspector. Does this function still exist ? If yes, where ?
Thanks.

Hi, Alizé.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can still format headers and footers in Pages 5.0. Here is the self help guide that walks you through this process.

Is it possible to have different headers for each page for the Pages app?

I just purchased the Pages app for my ipad and it happens to be one of the best apps i've ever bought. However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to have different headers for each page of the same document. Is this possible to do?

Tommy,
One of the limitations of Pages for iOS on your iPad is that Pages can't create sections per se. The best you can do is insert page breaks and then assign different columns to that page. The problem comes with the headers and footers - in iOS Pages, the headers and footers apply to the whole document, not the individual sections as you would find in Pages '09 on OSX.
The workaround is to create your document on OSX, insert the needed sections and headers, save, then transfer the Pages document to your iPad either as a working "blank" or as a new document. The headers and footers will reflect the sections you created in OS X, but you won't be able to add any new ones or new sections on your iPad.

I want to have different headers in Pages. I want to be able to set them and not have them be the same. For example I want ii then iii and so on...How do I do that?

Hi BelleDesign,
"Headers" is short for "Continuing Headers."
Use a Header when you want recurring information on a series of pages in your document.
If ii, iii, etc. are page numbers, you can place them in Headers using Insert > Page Number, then formatting the page number to lower case Roman numerals.
For more on Headers and Footers, see Chapter 3, Working with document parts in the Pages '09 User Guide, available for download via the Help menu in Pages. Discussion of Headers and Footers starts on Page 54.

How to apply different 'headers' to different sections of a document?

I realise that 'headers' may not be the correct term but... is it possible to apply a series of different 'headers' to different sections in a single document?
In the example where a single document consists of three 'chapters' (say, 10-15 pages each) I'd like to have a 'header' that reads: "This is the first part" at the top of all chapter one pages, "This is the second part" at the top of all chapter two pages and "This is the third part" at the top of all chapter three pages (etc).
I thought this might be possible using a series of master pages but have no idea whether that would work or how to go about it so any clues would be most appreciated - am using latest release of ID (CS6) on Windows 7.

Well you don't need different master pages.
You go to the single master page and go to
Type>Text Variables>Define
Click the pre-exisiting Running Header and click "edit"
Select "Running Header Paragraph Style"
Style: <select the style of the chapter heading> (if you don't have styles applied to your chapter headings then you need to apply a style to them so they show up)
Say Ok
On the Master Page - insert a text frame in the desired location.
With the Text Indicatior in the text frame - you can choose Type>Text Variable>Insert and choose the Running Head variable you just created.
That will do it.

Table on Page One Blocking Layout/Section Break & Distinct Headers/Footers

Is there any way to start a new Header/Footer on page 2, after a page one table that fills the page?
I've created my first page as a Table (entire page) in order to recreate the front page of my newsletter, as used by a previous editor. Works great, and has been the only way I've found to mimic the old front page. Problem is, I can't get the document to accept setting up a different header and footer for subsequent pages, and when I try to do so, I end up with a header on page 1 above my banner Headline. Yech.
I can't put a section break inside the Page 1 Table - Pages Won't allow (option is greyed out). I tried to put a layout break at the top of page 2, which is supposed to allow a new Header/Footer for subsequent pages, but when i insert the cursor on page 2 and attempt to create a distinct Header/Footer for the document after the layout break, there is a check mark, greyed out, in the Section part of the Layout Inspector, for the line: Use previous Headers and Footers. That is, it's locked and can't be unchecked.
If I do try to set up a header/footer field linked to the doc page after the layout break, it also creates the same layout and fields as for the first page.
Am I stuck here because I started out my doc with a table?

Welcome to the forums, OwlRemembers.
You should be OK with using the table as you are. The problem is probably arising because you aren't inserting the section break into the default text box on the page. This may be because the cursor is being inserted into the header, or that the table is covering the entire default text box, and so clicking in the main part of the page selects a table cell.
There are two things I would suggest. The first is to use the Layout View (under View menu, choose Show Layout) -- this will ensure that you can see the default text box (the big box that covers most of the page. The second would be to click on the table you have created and, in the Wrap Inspector palette, choose "Fixed on page". Once this is done, you should be able to grab the table, move is slightly aside, insert a section break on the page, and move the table back.

Different Headers and footers in case of multiple layouts

Hi
I have a requirement in which we have 4 layouts in one concurrent program and the layout to be selected is to be decided by the value of DFF at Invoice header level.
The 4 layouts have different headers and footers for which i am trying use single template (RTF) or multiple sub templates through Import functionality in XML Publisher but not able to show different headers and footers in one document. Also i have tried with the ?start:body?> and <?end body?> tags but facing issues in displaying different headers and footers in one document as we cant call the same body tags again in one rtf.
I am able to show different headers/footers data for 4 rtf templates by using import functionality as below but the footers can get shifted to next page if the line level records increases.
Can someone please help. Want to know if its possible to have this functionality. Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sanket Z

The possibility to have different headers/footers for 4 pages in a single word document. Is this functionality possible?
I want to generate report in which the Invoice header DFF value will decide which template to pick up from 4 layouts and every template has different header/footer.
i am trying use single template (RTF) or multiple sub templates through Import functionality
There are two ways in which i am trying to achieve the solution.
1. I am adding 4 layouts in a single document.
We can't use the <?start:body?> and <?end body?> tags in one file multiple times so i cant go with this option.
2. I am using import functionality in which i am registering one Master template which will call 4 sub templates as per the DFF value and that layout will be populated.
Code for Master template
<?if: TRX_TYPE ='INV'?>
<?import:xdo://LLCUST.LL_TEST_LAYOUT1.en.AU/?><?call-template:SubledgerTemplate?>
<?end if?>
<?if: TRX_TYPE ='CM'?>
<?import:xdo://LLCUST.LL_TEST_LAYOUT2.en.AU/?><?call-template:SubledgerTemplate2?>
<?end if?>
Code for Layout1 template(LL_TEST_LAYOUT1)
<?template:SubledgerTemplate?>
<?call-template:SubledgerTemplateHeader?>
TAX INVOICE 1
Invoice Date:TRX_DATE
Invoice No: TRX_NUMBER
Lines data
<?template:SubledgerTemplateHeader?> Header1<?end template?>
<?template:SubledgerTemplateFooter?> Footer1<?end template?>
<?call-template:SubledgerTemplateFooter?>
<?end template?>
But here after importing the RTF we need to call the particular template (<?call-template:SubledgerTemplate?>) which can't be combined with the <?start:body?> and <?end body?> tags. So the Footer will not be static at its place.
Please suggest or let me know if you need any more info or i can forward you the template etc.

HT4168 I have created an 100 page booklet in Pages, with many photographs, can I export it to ePub, and make an electronic book, because it says that "Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template"?

I have created an 100 page booklet in Pages, with many photographs, and much written word, can I export it to ePub, and make an electronic book, because it says that "Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template"?....
Basically what I want to do is publish the document into both an eDocument, and a hard copy document. What is the best way to do this?

No Peter, this statement came right off the Apple ePub statement when outlining how to use ePub. the full context is:

Pages '09
ePub is an open ebook standard produced by the International Digital Publishing Forum. Pages ’09 lets you export your documents in ePub format for reading with iBooks on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
iBooks supports both ePub and PDF file formats, and you can export both from Pages.
When to use ePub or PDF
Use ePub when text is the most important part of your document, for example when you create a book, a report, a paper, a thesis, or classroom reading material.

More details on using PDF
Creating an ePub Document to Read in iBooks
You can export any Pages word processing document to the ePub file format for reading in an ePub reader, such as the iBooks application on the iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Documents created in page layout templates can’t be exported to the ePub format.
Documents exported to ePub format will look different than their Pages counterparts. If you want to get the best document fidelity between the Pages and ePub formats, style your Pages document with paragraph styles and other formatting attributes allowed in an ePub file. A sample document is provided on the Apple Support site that features styles and guidelines to help you create a Pages document that’s optimized for export to the ePub file format, which you can use as a template or a guide. To learn more about using paragraph styles in Pages, see the topics under the heading “Working with Styles” in the Pages built-in help.
To read your ePub document in iBooks on your mobile device, you must transfer the ePub file that you create onto your device.
To use the “ePub Best Practices” sample documentTo learn more about using the ePub format and get a better feel for how a Pages document might appear as a book in iBooks, it’s a good idea to download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document. After reading the guidelines and instructions within the document, you can use it as a template to create your own document. You can also import the styles from the sample document into a new document you create.
Download the “ePub Best Practices” sample document at the following web address:
http://images.apple.com/support/pages/docs/ePub_Best_Practices_EN.zip
Do either of the following:Use the sample document as a template.Import the paragraph styles from the sample document into a new or existing Pages document.
Export the document you create to ePub format to see how it looks in iBooks.
Preparing an existing Pages document for export to ePub format
Documents exported to the ePub format automatically appear with page breaks before every chapter. A table of contents is automatically generated, which allows readers to jump quickly to any chapter title, heading, or subheading in the book. In order to create a meaningful table of contents, it’s important to apply appropriate styles within your document. The ePub reader uses the paragraph styles to determine which items should appear in the table of contents for your book.
Note: The Pages document must have been created using a word processing template.

Is there a way to reorder or introduce new pages in iBooks Author, without creating a new IBook?

Is there a way to reorder or introduce new pages in iBooks Author, without creating a new IBook? Is this possible?

The main thing is...you have a way to move forward with your project.
If I may offer some tips, learn to customise the template to suit your project...its basically very easy..once you try.Again a search will bring up posts that address this topic.
IF you do create your own template..save it as a template before using it, that way you have a clean version every time.
When putting your book together save versions as you go along..later you can delete them.
If, as .. you seem to have found, you need to change things or want to try other options, you can copy whole chapters or sections and paste in a new order or into another version of your template. If you copy into a different template or book, the template basic also transfer to the template. Best way to discover what can be done is simply open a new book to play with! Add a few chapters and sections...include some pages..and just drag things around, copy and paste where you choose. Its just learning and after you delete the junk!..BTW, yes, you can have single pages before the first chapter...i.e. I open a copyright page into a chapter...that drag it to the top of the book tree, a blue line will appear ..drop it.
If you need any help or advice, its available in abundance on this forum. Have fun...

How to create running headers based on paragrapgh style

I need to create running headers based on a particular paragraph style (Heading 2), so that the header on each page reflects the text of the latest Heading 2 in the document.
I've looked high and low on this forum and on the web, but no luck. If it's not possible, I probably won't be activating/buying my trial software.

Feature not available as such.
You can place a section break before each change in Header 2, set headers as 'new for this section' and enter the new information, but as far as I'm aware there's no built in way of making the change automatic.

Barry
