Create back-to-back magazine in CS6 - two front covers?

Hi all,
This is my first post here - I had a look round the forum and couldn't see anything relating to this so here goes:
I'm creating a school magazine in CS6 which has two main types of content: school news and student generated content. I would like both these sections have a front page, so I think a back-to-back magazine (not sure is there is a specific term) where both covers become front covers (but upside down in relation to each other) is the best way forward.
So - I wondered if anyone else has used Indesign for this type of document - are there any pitfalls/heads-ups I need to know about, and I should set the document up in a particular way?
Also, I've been using master pages to add in page numbers, and I wondered if there is a master page workaround for two sets of page numbering - both working towards the middle from each cover? Or would a simpler option be to rotate the pages once they're finished and add the page numbers in manually?
Thanks in advance,
Kate

This gets discussed from time to time here, generally in the context of books in two languages, and yes, there are pitfalls. to be truly back to back, not only do you need to rotate the back cover, but all of the pages for the second version, and they need to be in reverse order, You also need to decide if they will interleave (so there will be a right-side-up and an upside-down page on each spread), or if you wan t it set up so you can thear the magazine in half down the spine and have two separate but complete magazines.
The answer to the last part will help determine the easiest way to get the layout you need, but it's usually easiest to start out with two separate files and combine them in some way at the end.

  • How Do I create a Hyperlink back to a keynote file on a certain slide

    In my Keynote presentation I have a demo on (say for example) slide 30 which contains a hyperlink to another keynote file, at the end of this keynote file I want to create a hyperlink back to the original presentation from slide 30 or 31. Any ideas?

    Tulse is, as usual, absolutely correct. The only way to accomplish what you want is to divide your "main" presentation into two parts (per your example between Slides # 30 and #31) and then Hyperlink to and back from the "third part."
    To make this as seamless as possible to your audience, add an extra slide after #30, before #31, and as the first and last slides of your "third" (insert) presentation. Make all of these full-screen black (just create a black rectangle that exceeds the borders of the slide). Dissolve into or out of each of these black slides as appropriate. Then use the black rectangles at the end of part-one and the insert as the "triggers" for the Hyperlink to the next part. You will need to Click on these at the appropriate times to initiate the Hyperlink transitions. (Sadly, Hyperlinks cannot occur Automatically.)
    The result will be a fade-to-black (Click to Hyperlink) fade-from-black at each of the transitions.
    Good luck.

    Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
    I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
    Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
    Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
    How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.
    Sync Contacts:
    Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone
    Sync Calendars:

  • Can I put two iMac's back to back on the same desk.   I noticed the computers feeling hot.

    Can I put two iMac computers back to back on the same desk - I share a table with my husband and our computers have to be placed back to back.   I noticed the tops of the computers feel hot!  

    There should definitely be a little space between them to allow for ventilation, but it's normal for the top area to get hot.

  • My Time Machine keeps asking to complete a new backup instantly after I just created a new back up

    I recentlly starting using a Seagate wireless external hard drive to back up with Time Machine. The initial back up took 8-10 hours and that was at the beginning of April. Now at least once a week if not more Time Machine will give me a prompt saying "Time Machine completed a verification of  your backups on "XXX." To improve reliability Time Machine must create a new backup for you. Click start new back up to create a new back up. This will remove your exisiting backup history. This could take several hours."
    I understand how the initial back up can take hours. What I don't understand is why Time Machine is no longer taking snapshots of my computer to back up and instead has to delete what back up history I have and start all over. It's time consuming and doesn't make me feel very safe about my back ups. I've tried exploring the Time Machine preferences but there really isn't much I can figure out to change. I contacted Seagate directly and since I'm not using their software only their device they say it's an Apple and Time Machine problem.
    Why is this happening and how can I change the settings to avoid having to create an entirely new backup weekly?

    Backing up to a third-party NAS with Time Machine is risky, and unacceptably risky if it's your only backup. I know this isn't the answer you want, and I also know that the manufacturer says the device will work with Time Machine, and that it usually seems to work. Except when you try to restore, and find that you can't.
    If you want network backup with Time Machine, use as the destination either an Apple Time Capsule or an external hard drive connected to another Mac or to an 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only the 802.11ac base stations support Time Machine, not any older model.
    If you're determined to keep using the NAS for backup, your only recourse for any problems that result is to the manufacturer (which will blame Apple.)

  • How do I create a PST back-up for my webmail on Go-Daddy?

    I currently have a webmail account on Go-Daddy which will expire in early May. I want to export all my saved email folders from the Go-Daddy account so I do not lose all the email. I have been told this can be done using Outlook or Thunderbird. I have downloaded Thunderbird to my computer (using Vista OS) and need help with the next steps to create the PST back-up on Thunderbird. I have limited computer skills in this area.
    Thank you.

    lets try this again. A PST file is an outlook file. Thunderbird does not and never has created them.

    Use the add-on to export your mail as EML. This is a fairly standard format that just abut any mail client can read. Except Outlook.

  • Copy Customer Ref No to Vendor Ref No when create back to back Order

    Hi,
    I would like to copy Customer Ref No to Vendor Ref No when create back to back Sales Order to Purchase Order.  Please suggest a way.
    Does i need to do before form add?
    If BusinessObjectInfo.FormTypeEx = "65" And BusinessObjectInfo.BeforeAction = True Then
    End If
    Please help!
    Regards,
    Anna

    Hello Anna,
    You should update purchase order (copy the customer no ref to the vendor ref) after action (pVal = false), see the sample code here.
    Private Sub FormDataEventHandler( _
        ByRef BusinessObjectInfo As SAPbouiCOM.BusinessObjectInfo, _
        ByRef BubbleEvent As Boolean) Handles oApp.FormDataEvent
            'Before action = true, start the transation
            If BusinessObjectInfo.FormTypeEx = "65" _
                    And (BusinessObjectInfo.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_DATA_ADD) _
                    And BusinessObjectInfo.BeforeAction = True Then
                oCompany.StartTransaction()
            End If
            'Before Action = false,
            'Update purchase order
            'Succeed, commit, otherwise rollback
            If BusinessObjectInfo.FormTypeEx = "65" _
            And (BusinessObjectInfo.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_DATA_ADD ) Then
                If BusinessObjectInfo.BeforeAction = False And BusinessObjectInfo.ActionSuccess Then
                    Dim objectKey As String = String.Empty
                    'Get the purchase order key added right now
                    oCompany.GetNewObjectCode(objectKey)
                    Dim oPurchaseOrder As SAPbobsCOM.Documents = Nothing
                    oPurchaseOrder = oCompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oPurchaseOrders)
                    If oPurchaseOrder.GetByKey(CInt(objectKey)) Then
                        Dim oLines As SAPbobsCOM.Document_Lines = oPurchaseOrder.Lines
                        Dim salseOrderNum As String = oLines.BaseEntry
                        'add you code to get the custoemr ref of the sales order and set it the purchase order
                        lRetCode = oPurchaseOrder.Update
                        If lRetCode = 0 Then
                            'update the production tree succesfully,
                            oCompany.EndTransaction(SAPbobsCOM.BoWfTransOpt.wf_Commit)
                        Else
                            oCompany.EndTransaction(SAPbobsCOM.BoWfTransOpt.wf_RollBack)
                        End If
                    End If
                End If
            End If
        End Sub

  • Combining two tracks to play back-to-back???

    I'm sure it's simple, but I can't figure it out! How do I make it so two tracks play back-to-back, even in a shuffle?

    If you want to combine them at the time of ripping from CD, you can use the command Advanced > Join CD tracks.
    But once you have them as separate tracks in your library, iTunes does not have a way to "glue" them together. However, you can use an audio editor such as Audacity to make them into a single track.

    You might find useful advice on this Web page: Time Machine Troubleshooting, particularly item C13.
    The crazy thing is tht on my ProBook I still have them even though it uses the same Time Capsule, which to mind mind they are still there on the Time Capsule.
    Not necessarily.  Each Mac using a particular Time Capsule has its own set of backups that are independent of those of any other Mac.
    Has anybody else had this experience or has any suggestions how I can retrieve the info on my Mac?
    Why are those backups so important to you?  My advice is to move on and live without them.

  • I need to create a second back-up of iPhoto from Time Machine to a separate external drive.  The old iPhoto in TM will not open.  Please help!

    Most Simple Back Up:
    Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
    Slightly more complex: Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically.
    Example of such apps: Chronosync - but there are many others. Search on MacUpdate or the App Store

  • Check string for two special characters back to back

    Hey all so I need to check if a string has 2 backslashes back to back ("\\"). So the string "\\computername\c$\file" would match but the string "C:\file\path" would not. I've tried contains, match, and like. I've tried the code
    below which does work but gives me a false positive when I have a string like this "\computername\file\path".
    $com = "\\computername\C$"
    if($com -match "\\"){
    Write-Host true
    }else{
    Write-Host false
    Thanks for any help!

    In Regex ^ matches the starting position of a string. \ is a special character in Regex so you need to escape it with another \, so since you want double backslash \\, you need to escape twice \\\\, so ultimately ^\\\\ reads, at the start of the string
     find \\
