How to Copy FrameMaker Master Pages to all files in a book?

Newbie question.
I've created a Master page template for a title page that I now want to apply to every file in my collection of books (~5 books, +30 files).  How do I do this?
The page has a full page image and different margins.
I would try to brute force (manually recreate it in every file) but it is nearly a fluke that I managed to get it right to begin with.
I see there is a way to import reference pages--what about master pages?
Thanks!
Katherine

Katherine, are you wanting to import just a single master page (e.g. one called "Title"), but not the Left/Right default pages,  to all the other docs?
that's difficult to do in FM's dialogs because (as you may have found already) you can't choose specific master page(s)  to import, it's an all-or-nothing import.
Also, it helps us if you specify what version of FM, including the "pxxx" numbers as shown in Help > About, that always helps folks answer more precisely if there are variations among versions.

  • Copy single master page from one document to another?

    The answer to a previously posted question seems to involve creating a document differently (than I had). A lot of work went into the creation of the master pages in the original document which I will now need to recreate in the new document. Is there a way I can copy one master page from one document to another?
    Many thanks,
    Theresa

    There are a number of ways to do this.
    Create a copy of the document you want to copy the Master page from. Delete all pages except for the one you want (but you have to leave Right and Left alone as FM must always have these two pages available).
    Open the new document and the one that you want to import the master pages from.
    In the new document:
    Import from Document: (select the document with the Master Page that you want)
    then
    File > Import > Formats
    and select Page Layouts only.
    Note that Right/Left always come along for the ride.
    Alternative and probably best way to get a single Master Page:
    In new document, add a new Master Page and select "Empty".
    In the old document, on the desired Master Page, Select All on page (ctrl+A) and then copy (ctrl+v).
    In the new document on the new master page, paste (ctrl+v) to add the layout. Note: you may need to rotate the page first  if it isn't in the same orientation as in the old document.

  • Can I copy a Master Page from one document to another?

    Hi - this might be a basic question, but I haven't figured out the answer yet. I have one .muse site with a Master Page that I used... I want to use that same Master Page on another .muse site that I'm working on. Is there a way I can copy the Master Page from the finished site into the other one that I'm working on?? Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Blair

    Hi Blair,
    You should be able to do this by simply selecting (Ctrl+A) and copying (Ctrl+C) all content of the Master page of Site1 and Paste in Place (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+V) in the Master page of Site2.
    Thanks,
    Vinayak

  • How can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT - it's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)

    how can I save a page and all its component parts in a single file, like IE does as an MHT?
    It's much easier for mailing to people where page address not available?? (as in output from an airline booking site, for example)
    It is simply too painful to have to zip everything up into a single file to send. MHT format has been available for years now from IE, and with every new FF release it's the first thing I look for. I have been using FF for years, and hate having to come out of it, over into IE |(which I even took out of startup) and key everything in again, in order to send somebody something in a convenient format that they can open with a single click.
    I can't believe this hasn't been asked before, so have you looked at it and rejected it? Have MS kept the file format secret?
    Thanks
    MG

    This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
    I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
    Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
    There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
    You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
    As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
    Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

  • How to set custom master page for social/sites.aspx in sharepoint 2013

    How to set custom master page for social/sites.aspx in sharepoint 2013.?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    You could open the sites.aspx in Notepad or SharePoint designer, and set the master page to your own master page directly via editing:
    <%@ Page language="C#" MasterPageFile="~masterurl/custom.master"      Inherits="Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.WebControls.FollowedContentWebPartPage,Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal,Version=15.0.0.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c"

    Hi,
     For a lack of info about what Applications you are talking about we can only guess at what you want to do. In my experience, this is the kind of question that ends up being a mile long with 15 different examples because nobody knows exactly what you
    are trying to do.
     With that said, maybe you can put a ListView in your TabPage and use the code i showed in the link below. If not then please explain exactly what you want to do.  8)

  • How can I scan multiple pages to one file with MG 7120

    My printer does not have ADF. How can I scan multiple pages to one file on my MG 7120?

    Hi albabynyr,
    There is a program that comes with the printer called the IJ Scan Utility that can assist you with scanning multiple pages into a single file.  To scan using the IJ Scan Utility, please follow these steps:
    1. Start IJ Scan Utility by going to your Start menu, then selecting All Programs, then Canon Utilities, then  IJ Scan Utility (folder), then IJ Scan Utility (program).
    2. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
    3. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window.
    4. In the right pane of the window, locate the SELECT SOURCE field and select the DOCUMENT option.
    5. Set the color mode, document size, and scanning resolution as required in the rest of the fields shown in the window. Click DOCUMENT SCAN ORIENTATION SETTINGS... to specify the orientation of the documents to be scanned.
    6. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
    a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file.
    b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
    c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the DOCUMENTS folder.
    7. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the SETTINGS (DOCUMENT SCAN) window. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
    8. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. After a page has scanned, the screen to continue or end scanning appears. If you have more pages to scan, place the next page on the platen and click Scan.  Do this each time a page has completed scanning.  After the last page has been scanned, click Exit. Scanned images are saved in previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed during scanning.
    Hope this helps!

    Select those 30 duplicate entries, and go to print
    Viola! (When you are done you can delete the excess entries)

  • Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Does anyone know how to add a preface page at the beginning of the book in ibooks author once the book is written? No matter how I try to add a Preface page, it goes to the end of the book.

    Thanks. I've tried this and apparently the template I'm using is one of those where it doesn't work. I've tried dragging it as well as cutting a pasting but it always travels back to the end of the book. Maybe I can try changing the template temporarily, move the preface page, and then convert back to the original template. I'll experiment a little.

  • How do i send an email to all of my address book contacts :

    How do i send an email to all of my address book contacts :

    Select them all and drag them to the To line of a new message (or, better, the BCC line). But be aware that most e-mail servers put limits on the number of addresses a single message can be sent to and daily limits on how many different addresses you're allowed to send e-mails to, as spam control measures.
