Auto insert blank pages in a document and not count as page number.

This might be too much to ask of the program but it would make my life easier. I have several documents with sub-sections. I print the final document and insert tabs between sub-sections. If a sub-section ends with the last page as the front side of the paper I must put in a blank page as I cannot put a tab page between sub-section 1 and sub-section 2 if sub-section 1 ends on the front of one page and sub-section 2 starts on the back of that page.
I've laid out bookmarks in my document and I would like to have a way to automatically have a blank page inserted after the last page before a new bookmark if that last page would be on the front side of the paper. Also, I can't have that blank page or pages contain page numbers. The program must skip those pages and move on to the next actual page.
I could make each sub-section a seperate document but then I'd have about 50 documents to manage instead of 13 and controlling the page numbering would be a pain if I'd have to insert a new page in one sub-section I'd have to readjust page numbering in all the other documents in that section.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

If i give a paragraph that is on an even page that style it doesn't like it. The text disappears.

I'm in a multi-page document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

I'm in a multi-page Pages document, how can i rearrange the pages or insert blank pages in front of pages? Also, is there a way to show the ruler both horizontally and vertically?

Not on my document. I have a 7 page document open. The "flashing vertical bar" is at the top of page 3. I have the thumbnail view showing. I click page break and two blank pages are added to the end of my document. I have to scrool thru the pages to see that the 2 pages were added as they do not appear in the layout view... I'm not sure if it is inserting a "section" as it adds two blank pages.. But I am clicking on "INSERT PAGE BREAK".. So guess there are still a lot of bugs to fix..
Thanks again

Indesign CS5 crashing when inserting blank pages

I wonder if anyone else is having this following problem with Indesign CS5?
The program frequently crashes when inserting blank pages, especially several. I've noticed that this problem has something to do with amount of colums in the masterpage.
Recently I had this problem when layouting a book with 9 colums per page. After converting them to guides the problem dissapeared. When using multiple column masterpages it's usually ok to insert 2 new pages a time. More than this the program crashes.
Do I have to install the program again?

Have you patched to 7.0.4?

Error with master page "insert current page number" when exporting book

Using InDesign CS 5.5 for Windows
Recently upgraded from InDesign CS (the really old one from 2003). I did save a copy of all my old version files and kept the old ID installed just in case (after reading all the horror stories on here).
In my old version of ID, I created a book made up of about 70 documents. Some of these documents are one page, others have multiple pages. In the multiple page documents, I used the "insert ... current page number" character (or whatever the command was in the old version) on a master page, and formatted it to read, for example: Page 1 of 17, Page 2 of 17, Page 3 of 17, etc. When I exported my book to a pdf, it worked fine. (I do not want/have consecutive page numbers throughout the book, only in individual documents. By this I mean my entire book is about 280 pages, but not all of these 280 pages are numbered, just the groups of pages from these multi-page documents. It doesn't read page 1 through 280.)
Got my upgrade to 5.5 a few months ago, added some documents to the book, and (if i remember right) when I saved the book it asked to convert every old version document to the new version, which I said okay. When I exported the book to a pdf, some documents that are longer than 2 pages are now numbered wrong; the numbers are now going like this: Page 1 of 17, Page 2 of 17, Page 2 of 17 (supposed to be page 3), Page 2 of 17 (supposed to be page 4), etc. Every page but page 1 is now page 2 of whatever.
If I open the individual document and export it to pdf, the page numbers work fine. It's only when the document is exported with the book that the page numbers mess up. And it's not all the documents in my book; this error starts at a particular document and continues from that point throughout the rest of the book, affecting any document longer than 2 pages. Multi-page documents before this point in the book export with the correct page numbers.
I create new documents by doing a "save as" with a previously created document and cut and paste as needed, so I'm not having to reformat or set up page numbers on each new document. I don't use layers or styles (I'm sure there's a better way to do what I need, but I've only had time learn the basics, just enough to be functional.)
My attempts to fix this so far (using version 5.5), testing with the first document where the error appears: (1) I've removed the document from the book, deleted the insert current page number character, re-entered the insert current page number character, saved, exported the individual document to pdf and it worked fine. Put it back in the book, save, export, and it's wrong. (2) I took the document out of the book again, exported the document to .idml, saved as new .indd with new name, exported to pdf and it worked fine. Put it back in the book, save, export, and it's wrong. (3) I started up my old ID version, opened the old version of this document, exported to .inx, closed, opened .inx in ID 5.5, saved as new .indd with new name, exported to pdf and it worked fine. Put it back in the book, save, export, and it's wrong. (4) I moved the document up in the book order, putting it above a document that has correctly numbered pages, saved, exported to pdf, and this document was still wrong, but the one that has been numbered correctly all along is still correct. (5) I've compared settings for this document to others that number correctly and cannot find any difference.
It's like the page numbers get hung on "2" when I export the book, but only in the last two-thirds of the book. Sorry it's so lengthy, but I hope this description of my problem is understandable. Any advice, other than going back to my old version documents and starting over?
Thanks for your time and for all the awesome information this forum provides!

Mr. Spier
Right after I posted my question, I saw a post from last year where somebody had similar problems. (I cringed because I spent almost 3 days researching this problem and never ran across that post; thanks for not scolding me for posting a semi re-run.) I decided to try one of the easier solutions: I opened the problem document from the book panel, went to the master page and deleted the text box containing the page number, copied the page number box from a document that worked correctly, and pasted it into the problem document. Saved that doc, closed, saved book, exported to pdf, and it worked!! The page number problem was fixed. I went back and did the same thing for the other problem documents and they all number correctly now.
Probably not the best way, but for now this will fix it; I may have to do it again next time I add to the book. Although I didn't follow your instructions, I'll mark this as answered since it's working now. If it keeps giving me problems, I'll try the .inx export/new book route.
thanks for your time

How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option.

How can I print a whole email document and not a "screen shot" like I get in the Print Preview option. I'd like to print from "file" and print" like I can on other browsers (IE, for example). When I try to print from Firefox it grabs all my info (file folders, etc.) from the left side of the page. I need just the email information, not the entire screen information. Thank you!
-Bruce

I agree; I should, but I can't :) I have an orange Firefox drop down that I go to to print, and it allows me to select "print", "print preview" and "print setup", where I can change the margins. It always defaults to a full screen shot (I use Yahoo) and does not show just the email. I don't need to print what is on the left side of the screen or anything other than the email (I can achieve these things by using file-print from IE, so I know it is doable, and I am still going into Yahoo and using their email when I do it).
Hope this helps. I'm not a fan of IE, but I really don't like the print properties I'm getting here (I'm a long time Mozilla user, but I'm losing too much info with this option and can't afford that anymore).
Thanks for the help!

HT1284 How can I backup word documents and not have them crowd my screen? Thanks.

Hi. How can I backup word documents and not have them crowd my screen? I know, you guessed it. I'm a novice, but not ashamed!

Please explain what you mean when you say backup Word documents crowds your screen.
I don't see any connection between backup and your screen.

Search results displays title from the document and not from its metadata

Hi All,
I have an issue with SharePoint 2010 Search results. While searching for any content in SharePoint, it displays the title value from the keyword in the document and not from the metedata.
Scenario:- I have a document library and a document named "Bill Details C1234.doc" in it. The title for this item in document library is "Bill Details". However on searching with keyword "Bill" it displays the
first word in the word document which is "I".It should display the title set in the document i.e. "Bill Details".
Please suggest

I think you're looking to do the reverse of this:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/c2ec4fc2-e04c-453c-8035-4f334f062d05/have-search-results-display-the-filename-of-a-word-doc-instead-of-the-title-metadata?forum=sharepointsearchlegacy
check this out as well, again I think you want to reverse part of this where it references filename
http://chris.gg/2011/06/display-filename-instead-of-document-title-in-sharepoint-search/
So, where it references Filename, you would put title, but leave where it references title alone. Or maybe I misunderstood and you are looking for exactly this, to make search display the filename and not the title, in which case I trust that you'll
find this to be your answer.

Has anyone found the answer to this problem? I am experiencing the exact same issue today. This is quite frustrating! If anyone has a clue on how to fix this or how to prevent it from happening again please post a reply.
I'd hate to lose all of my work over the past hour (I couldn't imagine of loosing a days worth of work like the original poster stated) but if there is no fix, I understand. However, is there something that I could have done to cause this? If so, I want to avoid doing it in the future.
Thanks guys.

How to insert blank page into pages document when using word processing mode?

I've recently created a 50+ page document using Pages '09. I started the document using word processing mode. Now, when I view in thumbnail mode and try to insert a blank page somehwere in the middle of the document, it won't allow me to select where I want. It just selects all the pages, as thought they are one section. I believe this is because I am in word processing mode. My question is, can I convert the document to layout mode so that each page represents it's own section, without losing what work I've already done? And if so, how?
The document is entirely text boxes and images, so I don't have any need for word processing space. I just need new pages to act as blank templates for the text boxes and images I create.
Is it possible to keep all my work as is, and convert the document to layout mode vs. word processing mode?
Thanks!

It just selects all the pages, as thought they are one section.
That's because they are one section. You must insert section breaks to separate them. There is no need to use page layout which does make each page a separate section. You have to manually add each page & use text boxes or other containers for the text & link the text boxes.

Inserting blank pages into an existing document

I'm new to Pages. I'm creating my first document, which involves text and photos. It's presently a 5 page document. I'd like to insert two new blank pages right after existing page 3 (for items that I don't have yet but will in the next day or so), but I can't figure out how to do that without messing up what I've done. "Insert page break" isn't showing up as an option when I put the cursor at the end of page 3 (which is on a photograph, immediately following a caption that's typed on the photograph). Also, I don't have any section breaks in the document.
Any ideas? It seems like this should be something straightforward. Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks.

chris,
Click on View > Show Invisibles. You should see a paragraph marker at the end of page 3. Put your cursor right before that, then you should be able to click on Insert > Page Break. Do it twice and you should have two blank pages.

Insert blank page 2 for all documents in PDF. Multiple document PDF.

I have a form that prints on to many invoices. The first page contains a tear off stub, so i need to skip the second page for each invoice in a multiple invoice PDF. Assuming this must be done with script as I can skip the page two of entire document but not individual invoices.

I do not follow. Can you explain this further?

Inserting blank page into template

I am working in a template. I would like to insert a blank page into the middle of it and create my own thing and then continue with more pages from the template. How do I insert a blank page.

micheley,
I think the easiest and cleanest way is like this: click on View > Show Invisibles so that you can see all the hidden characters, then put your cursor in front of the last paragraph marker on the previous page. Click on Insert > Page Break. That will add a new, blank page inside your document.

Inserting blank pages.

Oh my! Have been to the manual but since I am a Sr. Citizen, its information was a little (well, a lot) over my greying locks. Want to add a blank page in a continuous text document (word processing) with photos thrown in from iphoto. Not locked, so the text moves, but not the photos.
There are 109 pages in this document so I am not able to add a blank page between Page 3 and 4, as the thumbnails are all outlined in yellow! Tried sections, but only a blank page appears and it always inserts at the bottom of document. Need help from some real brains out there. Make it simple! Thanks.

Hi Vicki,
Click to place the insertion point immediately after the last text you want to appear on Page 3.
Go Insert (menu) > Page Break. Repeat.
You'll now have an empty page following page 3.
At the bottom right corner of the document window, grab the shaded triangle (three diagonal lines) and drag right to open a grey space to the right of your document.
Click in the grey space to exit Text mode.
With the empty page showing on your screen:
Go Insert > Choose...
In the Choose dialogue, navigate to the file that is your picture, select it, then click Insert.
Drag the photo into position, and resize it as desired, using the handles at the corners.
If you want text to appear on this page, and to flow around the picture:
Make sure that one of the Wrap options is selected, using the Wrap button in the Format bar.
Click immediately before the text on what is now Page 5 to place the insertion point there.
Press delete ONCE to delete the second page break you inserted earlier.
The text will jump up to resume immediately after (or beside, depending on the Wrap option you chose) the photo.
Regards,
Barry

Inserting blank page for ads according to datamerged field.checking for whether a variable exists on

Let me see if I can explain what I am trying to do. I have a script which loops through pages of an indesign document. I use a for loop to do so.
Within each page is a text frame called "Advertising" with a Y or N as the value. If the value is Y, I want to insert a blank page before the page with the advertising field. Within the for loop however, there are calls to other data fields. My issue is that when I add a blank page, and the for loop continues, it errs out because the blank page does not contain the variable fields I am using. (highlights)...
So my question is, how can I cause the for loop to skip the newly inserted page so that the missing variable doesn't cause the script to fail?
should I be checking whether the layer exists then doing something like:
if(newDoc.pages.item(i).pageItems.item("CompanyHighlights").length > 0){}
for(var i = o; i < PageLength-1; i++){
//some kind of check to determine whether it's a blank page, or a page with the variable.
     if(newDoc.pages.item(i).pageItems.item("CompanyHighlights").length > 0){
          var highlights= newDoc.pages.item(i).pageItems.item("CompanyHighlights").contents;
          var advertising = newDoc.pages.item(i).pageItems.item("Advertising").contents;
          if(advertising == "Y")
               //add blank page before this page

Thanks Hans, I actually got it working last night: I had to run a double if statement to check the Master page and move the counter var to a global var, and then add 1 to the counter "i" since I was adding a page, and add 1 to the PageLength so the for loop can continue on the pages that were moved ahead a page number by adding a page...not the best solution, but it works and I'm on a deadline. Thank you for trying to help though.
//make i a global variable
var i = 0;
for(i = 0; i < PageLength-1; i++){
//define master page of current page in the loop
var masterpage = newDoc.pages.item(i).appliedMaster.name;
//if its C-Master, skip it
    if(masterpage != "C-Master"){
       //if it contains the merged Advertising field add a page
      var advertising = newDoc.pages.item(i).textFrames.item("Advertising").contents;
          if(advertising == "Y")
               //Add a page.
               newDoc.pages.add(LocationOptions.before, newDoc.pages.item(i) );
               newDoc.pages.item(i).appliedMaster =app.activeDocument.masterSpreads.item("C-Master");
               i=i+1;
               PageLength = PageLength+1;
var masterpageAgain = newDoc.pages.item(i).appliedMaster.name;
            if(masterpageAgain != "C-Master"){
               var highlights=newDoc.pages.item(i).textFrames.item("CompanyHighlights").contents;
