Insert new pages so they inherit margins etc.

If I use F12 and "Insert new pages" I would expect themto inherit the margin settings etc. from the existing pages next to them.
But they don't. Anything I can do about that?
ty

If by "F12 and insert new pages" you mean using the "Insert Pages" flyout menu item in the Pages Panel, then I think the answer is that it will inherit the margins etc of whichever master page you choose in the Insert Pages dialog box (the bottom-most pop-down menu). Set up your margins, page numbers etc on the A-Master at least and you should get what you are after.

  • Crashes when inserting new pages into Templates from CS6

    InDesign CS6 is crashing frequently when page numbers or blank pages are inserted into an InDesign Template file, The problem persists for many different users on several platforms and operating systems.

    I have continued to have the same problems since I originally posted, including after the 7.0.2 update, though I have not tested EVERY scenario I did the first time after updating. Has anyone else seen improvement after the update? (I got the 7.0.2 update download via the built-in Adobe updater, not from the website, so I'm not sure where to locate it there).
    I am sorry to hear others having similar or the same issue, but hopefully it is helpful to have a thread going where all those experiencing this can add to the list until it is recognized as a bug. And fixed! Though it does not resolve the actual problem, two work-arounds we are using to function in the meantime are to (1) always make a really long document to start with, with all the pages we think we'll need and more and (2) have a new, blank InDesign document with several pages open and drag pages from the blank document into your working document. This is a way to "add" blank pages when they are needed without inserting new pages in any of the traditional ways (which cause crashes). I also always send the crash report in to Adobe and encourage others to do the same.
    If you have not already, all of you also having this problem could post a "bug report" here: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform

  • Insert new page at run time to pull in images

    Hello ,
    I'm using Adobe LC Designer 8.2, and wondering if there is a way to insert a new page - not in design view but at run time since I have a dynamic plot as image (jpg) to bring into a form (1 image per page).  How would l load the image in & create those pages for these plots - it's going to be different amount of images/plot each time when the form run.  I know that I have to use script some how, but I'm new at this. Greatly appreciate all the help!
    Thanks,
    Trang

    One idea would be.....housing the image alone in a subform and set the subform to use "Top of the next Page" under "Object>>Pagination>>Place:". Also you may have to play with "Object>>Pagination>>After:" option to get things in your favor.

  • Version 4.2/ can't insert new page!!

    I"m using Pages 4.2 and it is very weird. I can't insert a new blank page within my document. When I do, the page appears at the very top of the entire document. Also, why can't I drag actual pages around where I want? This is easily done in Word. Even create new section breaks are page breaks put those functions not where I want them but at the top of the entire document. There is no flexibility here and nothing about this features is in the preferences. And duplication does the same. It puts the duplicate at the top, very beginning. I need it where I'm trying to work.

  • How do I insert new pages into an existing pages document

    I have been doing a newsletter for 18 months in pages. SInce the last update I have been unable to find a way to add a page to my document or change positions of pages. I have searched online for answers which did not help, and all the tutorials I found are not for the updates version.  Help, this app is useless if I can't do this!

    How could you not find the hundreds, if not thousands, of references here to the missing features in Pages 5?
    Apple removed over 100 features from Pages 5 of which these are only a few:

  • How do I make content in a text field continue onto a new page?

    I am creating a form and one of the pages contains a text field for an essay. I'd like the responses in this text field to carry onto new pages if they reach the end of the first page. How do I make new pages appear with only the continued text field? Thanks!

  • Inserting new section creates 2 pages at a time, cannot delete one

    Hi,
    Building out a series of two page templates, and I cannot insert a blank page, or even duplicate, without pages creating two new pages. When I try to delete one, both vanish.
    When I duplicate, the third page matches the original first, and there is then also a blank second page between both.
    My main page does have a full bleed rectangle serving as the fill color if that makes any difference.
    Thanks

    I have my default template set with wrap turned off. Inserted objects then don't cause these problems. Before turning wrap off I set the extra space/gutter to 2 points rather than the default 12 points.
    Here are the full instructions I wrote some time ago for setting up your own template.
    You need to create your own default template. Set up your document with the margins, headers, etc. as you'd like. Redefine all of the paragraph & character styles to have your desired font.
    While you're at it, you might want to set default styles for all objects, text boxes, tables, paragraph styles, etc. Start with a blank document & insert an object. Change the color, wrap, etc. to your choosing & then go to Format > Advanced > Define Default Shape Style then delete the object. Repeat with an image/photo, a text box & a table.
    Now, save this as a template then, in Pages > Preferences, select this template as the default for new documents. All of your new documents will have these settings for inserted objects, images & tables. Unfortunately, the settings won't apply to any other templates or "foreign" documents you open with Pages.

  • Why does "Insert MathType Equation" not work in new Pages for Mac?

    Command opens MathType (6.7e).  After typing an equation, pressing Command-W closes the MathType window and returns to Pages.  (Instructions given here: http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.0/#/tan0e6bf8310  indicate that I should have to answer "Yes" to some question at this point, but no question appears.  The return to Pages is automatic.)  But no equation appears in the placeholder in the Pages 5.0 document (as it does in Pages 4.3).  Subsequently double-clicking the placeholder in the Pages 5.0 document opens a new (blank) MathType window.  Where is my equation?

    Right -- you shouldn't have to start MathType separately. If it's running, fine, but if it's not, it will start when you first use the Insert MathType Equation command.
    All the posts and replies have been helpful, but I'm still getting mixed results. The first document I opened in Pages 5.0 was one that I created in Pages 4.3, and it had several MathType equations in it. I could not edit the old equations, but I could insert new ones and edit them once they were inserted. I later rebooted and opened the same document (which was now saved in Pages 5.0 format), and I got a message saying some of the images had been deleted. All of the original equations had been replaced with empty placeholders (gray boxes with a large X), but the new ones were still there.
    I haven't been able to duplicate that behavior with additional "old" documents. I can open Pages 4.3 documents in Pages 5.0, and all the old equations are visible and editable. Someone mentioned re-installing MathType, and I must say that I did that (for a different reason), so I must consider the possibility that this had some bearing on the outcome, but I can't be sure.
    It does appear, as has been reported many times, and as Peter alluded to above, that you can't add equations or other objects to text boxes or tables. I believe this was intentional on Apple's part, but that doesn't mean it was a good idea.
    That said, and this is a Pages thread so I won't say much about it, I haven't seen any problems at all with Keynote 6.0 and Numbers 3.0, when it comes to how they deal with MathType.

  • InDesign crashes when trying to insert a new page!

    I use InDesign CS6 on a PC Win7.
    Suddenly yesterday when I tried to insert pages in one of the chapters in a book I am working on (12 chapters, 260 pages)  the software crashed!
    I have tried 7 times more after that with different changes, like only open the chapter I want to insert pages in, restart the computer and so on.
    Every time I try there is a "pling"-sound and It still crashes.
    What to do?

    Unfortunately there are lots of different things that can cause crashing behavior.
    Here is a list of things you could try:
    Check that you have the latest version of InDesign CS6 installed. Help > About InDesign (should be 8.0.2) - Adobe - InDesign : For Windows : Adobe InDesign CS6 8.0.2 update - All Languages
    Save the document as an InDesign IDML file, and reopen that IDML file in InDesign, then save it as an InDesign file again.
    Create a copy of the InDesign document and try opening that and adding a new page.
    In the open InDesign document before adding a page: Edit > Preferences > Type, deselect the Smart Text Reflow option.
    Delete cache files (see: InDesign preferences and support files locations page)
    Rename InDesign preferences file (or delete).
    Disable/Uninstall any third party plug-ins that are installed, and check that any third party plug-ins or extensions that are installed are compatible with the InDesign version used (depending on how they are installed you could do this from the Adobe Extension Manager application - see http://helpx.adobe.com/extension-manager.html).
    If all of this fails, you might need to try and isolate which object in your document is causing the crash. That's generally a time-consuming task, but hopefully one or some of the above combined will provide you with a fix.

  • Help! The new Pages. I can't copy an entire page or rearrange the pages. In the new formatt also when I insert a new page when using a template it doesn't give me the formatting and guides.  Can anyone help.

    I can't copy an entire page or rearrange the pages. I use this feature a lot, particularly at this time of year. Can't seen to rmove the header and footer markers either.
    Can anyone help or do I need to revert back to pages 09?
    If I do re-install 09 will I be able to open the files that where converted to the new version?
    I don't like this new one. Many of the graphics features have been removed.  Not impressed at all. Very frustrated.
    The business card templates and others behave strangly.  If I insert a page it's blank only. I don't get the guides.  I was in the middle of a design project and had to start again from scratch as it threw everything out of alignment  and I can't copy an entire page. When I use select all, group then copy when I pasted it on the new page it overlayed all the cards in the top two segments.  Frustrating !  I ended up  saving my first page under a different name that was the only way to copy the page then I had to work between three documents instead of one.
    I went in today to last years Christmas tag file and the same issues I can't copy a page. I can't rearrange the pages.
    Simple features like colour choice and transperency for shapes are gone. I want to use my colour choices not someone else.
    Sorry, I am ranting.
    For now all I need is to be able to copy and switch pages around in one document.
    Please Help! I am about to start pulling my hair out in frustration.

        Yes, I am using 09 with out issues.  Just have to remember to use "open with 09" or open pages 09 first then my document.
      I create some amazing cards and posters with 09 that when on a PC I would have to use both Word and Publisher to create.  Flipping back and forth. 
      Apple if you're  listening please, give us back our layout options and even add a few more design options like beveled and 3D text.

  • How do I make it so my client can edit Links in business catalyst when they create new pages?

    Okay so essentially I have built a site in Muse uploaded to business catalyst and I've setup a site template so that the client can create new pages as each new course arrives, but how do I get the link from the homepage to link to the new page? basically I need the link to be editable.
    What would be ideal is a kind of portfolio layout where there is a thumbnail and a new page but for my client to be able to add a new project adn it would create a thumbnail on the homepage and a new page that he can edit. Does anyone know of something like that possible in Business catalyst?

    Hi
    Editing with Business Catalyst only works with image or text editing , we cannot add new page or page items using in browser editing.
    However, you can manage the site from BC end when your client and login to admin and add pages, modify etc, but if you re-publish the site from Muse then then changes will be overwritten.
    Thanks,
    Sanjit

  • InDesign CS3 crashes when I try to insert a new page

    I'm working on a document that is currently 70+ pages in InDesign CS3, and whenever I try to add a new page (regardless of where I try to add the new page at within the document), InDesign crashes. I haven't experienced this issue with any other documents. After not having worked on this document for several days, I was able to insert 2 new pages today before the issue started again. I've done several searches on the Adobe forums, and I haven't come across anyone who seems to experience this same problem. But if anyone has, or has a suggestion for me to try, I would really appreciate it, as this document needs to grow to 100 pages, meaning I really need the ability to insert pages!!
    Computer: Mac OS X, 10.5.8, Dual 2.3 GHz PowerPC G5
    Software: InDesign CS3
    Error Message: InDesign has unexpectedly quit. A crash report has been generated....

    Thanks, Peter. The problem still persisted through a new indd file created from an exported inx file though. I was able to work around the issue by setting my document to 100 pages in Document Settings. That added enough extra pages at the end of the document which I can then move to other locations within the document.
