How can I create a new format in pages?

Basically this comes from trying to change the vertical indentation on pages. (Like you can change the horizontal, you know? I just wanted to make the text field smaller on all sides. Incidentally, if you know how to do a vertical indentation change, I'd be all ears.)
Anyway, apparently you can't do that, so....
I've got a set up that I want (two text boxes linked so that text spills over to the next) but I want this to be on every succeeding page without having to create the page all over again with new text boxes.
Is there any way to .... I don't know .... "automate" might be the right word, this first page set up so that it's automatic when my text fills the two boxes?
Help?
Thanks,
R

Two separate questions.
1. "Vertical indentation"
Word processing document: Set the Document's top margin to a larger number. Highest I tried was 8" on a US Letter sized page, giving a 3" band for text. Graphic objects placed outside (above) this margin do appear on the display and on a Preview of the print, but I didn't check if they make it through to the printed page.
Or use a borderless, colourless shape with default Wrap properties to fill the space where you do not want text to appear.
Page Layout: All text is in Text boxes. Size and position of each box may be set as you wish.
2.Linking Text boxes
Word processing document: Text boxes are independent objects if they have not been created as linked. You can add more linked boxes to a chain of linked boxes, but they will not reproduce themselves. New pages are added as text fills the base text area of the page, but the only objects appearing on the new page are those that have been set as Master Objects. These are not useful in your case, as the Master objects are exact copies (including content) of the original.
Page Layout document: If you Capture a page containing a pair of linked text boxes, that page becomes available in the menu of the Pages button in the Toolbar. The two boxes on a new pages will be linked to each other, but not to the original pair. To join the new boxes to the chain, click on the last box in the chain, then click on the first new box. The link will be added, and any excess text will flow into the new box(es).
NOTE: Not thoroughly explored. Do some experimenting.

  • How Can I Create a New Check In Page?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to create a new check in page using hcst or jsp but i can´t find the place to put it... or to customized it... and I don´t know where to find the files for it.
    Thanks,
    Rui Santos

    As was already mentioned there is the rules/profiles through configuration applet, but if you want to use a custom HCSF, HCST, JSP, etc., and then add it to the menu you will need a component that makes use of the navBuilder JavaScript API.
    Then you add a resource file to your component and add something like this to that resource:
              <@dynamichtml custom_finish_layout_init@>
                   <$include super.custom_finish_layout_init$>
                   navBuilder.addChildNodeTo
                        'ADMINISTRATION',
                        'item',
                        'id==FileStorePathFinder',
                        'label==File Store Path Finder',
                        'url==' + httpCgiPath +'?IdcService=FILE_STORE_TEST'
              <@end@>
    For this example, we are actually adding a menu item to the Administration menu, but all the menus can be manipulated like htis.

  • How can I create a new folder in an external disk that is connected via USB to my Mac?

    How can I create a new folder in an external disk that is connected via USB to my Mac?

    Just like you would create a new folder anywhere. Open the drive's icon from your desktop or the Finder, and click shift-command-N. (Or use the Finder menu if you prefer - File - New Folder).
    If you can't create a folder, your drive may be the wrong format (you can't write to a Windows/NTFS formatted drive, for example). You'll have to back up any files you have on there, and then use Disk Utility to reformat it to Mac Extended (if it will only be used on a Mac) or MS-DOS format (if you want to share it with a PC).

  • TS2756 How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )

    How can i create a new usb connection (service)  on my iMac for sharing internet from my iPhone5 ( i seem have to deleted it )
    i know its not a problem whit my carrier o data plan or sharing preferences on the ipone because when i use it un my laptop it works perfectly through
    the usb and even works on the Imac through wifi and bluethood tethering but NOT through usb!!.
    the problem is that trying to make it work i deleted the "profile" usb iphone on the network prefereces panel. Now i only have 3 options: ethernet / wifi / bluetooth
    but not the usb iPhone i used to have.
    And when i try to add a new one i dont get a USB option.
    can some one help me please??
    this is how it looks (after the bluetooth PAN i used to have USB iPhone option)

    The question would be more appropriate in the Mac forums as it is not really related to the iPhone.

  • How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4?

    How can I create a new ring tone for my iPhone 4? I followed the Garage Band process and ended up with the ring tone I want as a AAC audio file. It got stored in my iTunes a a song rather than a ring tone. How do I make it a ring tone vs. a song? I tried dragging it t the Ring Tone category at the bottom of the ITunes list, but it won't alloow me to move it?

    There's also an easy to use Applescript over at Doug's Applescripts for iTunes. It automates the whole thing. All you do is set the start and stop time on a file in iTuens and run the script. It will do everything else.

  • How can I create a new Music Library?

    Had to buy new laptop which of course has Vista. The old unit was acting up(I think Windows XP was corrupt), so I saved my Library Files but it looks like the old machine only saved portions not the whole Library. I had approx. 13,000 tunes (35GB) in the LIbrary and all that was saved seems to be 319 tunes. I have all the music on an external HD and only the Library was on the laptop. My question is, how can I create a new Library from the external HD music? Is there a way or am I SOL? Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated.

    You need the entire libary on the external, not just media.

    Once you get a complete iTunes folder on the external drive, start iTunes with the option/alt key held down and select the iTunes Library.itl file on the external drive.  You will also need to do this with your main computer or the libraries will become unsynchronized.
    Alternatively you can make a separate library using the same media on the second computer. Start as you have been doing, let iTunes create a new, blank library file which will be on hte internal drive, set the media folder location in preferences to be the one on the external drive, then add the files to the new iTunes library. Unless you are a super-organized individual, or you don't care if your libraries do not have the same content, you are better off using a single library file that is on the external, not setting up separate library files.

  • How can I create a new entry without using LOV for foreign keys.

    How can I create a new employee without using LOV for the foreign key "job_id".
    On the first page I would like to choose the job_title from adf read-only table.

    Hi,
    usually the foreign key is only set if the VO you select is dependent from a master. If e.g. you have DepartmentsVO1 that has an EmployeeVO3 as its nested VO, then creating a new instance of employees automatically add the foreign key. If you add EmployeesVO1, which is not dependent to DepartmensVO1, then the foreign key is not set. So if this is the case in THURA (keep in mind that this is not an Oracle demo but a sample used in a book about ADF) then all you need is to take the independent VO when building the new employee form.

  • How can I create a new TC backup with ethernet, so I don't have to wait two days for a new wireless backup?

    How can I create a new TC backup with ethernet, so I don't have to wait two days for a new wireless backup?
    Several times in the last year, I've gotten a message that Time Machine needs to completely redo my backup. Using the wireless connection, this takes almost two days. Is there a way to do the backup with ethernet and then switch back to wireless? Thanks.

    May I know what is needed to make sure the MacBook is able to see Time Capsule on ethernet?
    Connect an Ethernet cable from one of the LAN <-> ports on the 2Wire gateway to the WAN port (circle of dots icon) on the Time Capsule.
    If AirPort Utility cannot "see" the Time Capsule now, you will need to perform a "hard reset" by holding in the reset button for 7-8 seconds or so and then reconfigure the Time Capsule. You can use the same Time Capsule name and password, etc. as before.
    Configure the Time Capsule to "Create a wireless network" and select the Bridge Mode option when it appears during the setup using AirPort Utility.
    Once the Time Capsule is configured, restart the entire network again. Power down everything, start the 2Wire first and then start each other device after that one at a time about a minute apart.
    Now you can connect your Mac directly to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule for the backup using another Ethernet cable. In general, about 20-25 GB per hour will transfer.
    The Time Capsule will broadcast a much faster wireless network than the 2Wire can provide, so you might want to leave the setup "as is" for awhile after the first backup is complete. If you decide to use the Time Capsule as your main wireless access point, you would want to turn the wireless off on the 2Wire since two wireless networks in close proximity can create interference problems.
    Or, if you want to use the wireless on the 2Wire, you could turn off the wireless on the Time Capsule. Then backups will occur over the 2Wire wireless, or over Ethernet.
    I don't really recommend the "Join a wireless network" setting on the Time Capsule for most users, but you could go back to that setup as well if you want after the first backup is complete.

  • I cannot recover my Master Password under 10.6.8. I want to change it. I do have my admin password for my account. How can I create a new master pw?

    I cannot recover my Master Password under 10.6.8. I want to change it. I do have my admin password for my account. How can I create a new master pw?

    If you are referring the Master Password that can be set in System Preferences>Security>FileVault, then see this thread:
    How to reset FileVault master password
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5822772
    As explained there, and for obvious security reasons, a new master password created in this fashion way will not unlock any pre-existing FileVault accounts. Resetting the master password is therefore only useful after you turn off FileVault in all existing accounts. You can then turn FileVault back on after the new master password is in place.

  • How can i create a new password?

    I forgot my password, how can i create a new one?

    On Lion or Mountain Lion, you use the following technique to reset the Administrators password:
    Boot to your Recovery Partition, by holding down the Option key while starting, and then selecting the Recovery HD as the boot choice.
    Once booted, at the top of the screen is a menu ..., select Utilities / Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A “Reset Password” window will open. Select your boot volume (your SSD drive) if it is not already selected. Select your administrators username from the menu labeled “Select the user account” if it is not already selected. Follow the prompts to reset the password. Restart the computer from the apple menu.
