Inserting a page to an existing document

I just want to add a new page which has artwork pasted to it to an existing multi-page document of text. The text is a book, and I want to put a cover at the beginning so Kindle will display it when I publish it. Of course I have to convert the whole file to Word before uploading to Kindle, but I can't find how to do something this simple in Pages first. It's driving me nuts, any help?

Put a page break or section break at the beginning of the first page. Insert the image just before the break if you want it inline.

  • 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.

  • How do I insert additional pages inside a footnoted document with accompanying text boxes and still keep pages below syncronized?

    Is there a way to insert additional pages into a lengthy document containing continuous footnotes at the bottom of each page and accompanying text boxes on most pages without losing the syncronization of text and text box information on the pages below?

    Footnotes do not work for text in textboxes, and you can keep on adding text after existing text so I am not sure what you are asking for.

    What do you mean by "copy and paste a page"? What tool have you selected? Or are you just assuming you can select stuff and copy/paste as in Word?

  • Inserting Multiple Page PDF in Word Document

    I've been searching for an answer to what I thing ought to be a rather simple question and I can find nothing. I have a couple of users who have attempted to insert a multiple page PDF into a Word document and found that only the first page of the PDF
    shows up in their document. Is there any method to insert multiple page PDFs into Word as multiple pages without splitting the PDF into individual single page files and inserting individually?
    Thanks...Ray

    A quick and dirty way to do this is to open the pdf document in question with word separately.   You get the following warning message.
    I can then select all and copy/paste in to my word document.
    The few pdfs I tried this with pretty much turned in to all images when I did this, but it worked my purposes.
    I did end up having to resize one that didn't seem to want to fit when I pasted it in.  There may be a method to select an image and automatically fit it within the margins of the page it is on that would help that.
    The file size on my resulting word document seemed to grow quite a bit as well.  Again, not really an issue in my case though.

  • Insert a page from the current document into another

    I am trying to insert the current page of the current document into a new document I am building in variable doc. So I can do something like
    doc.insertPages({nPage: i, ... ,nStart: 0});
    How do I make the source be the current document? Should I use cPath: with the path to the current document? Or is there some other way to refer to the current document?

    Try this.path

  • Really no way to insert a page without destroying entire document's layout?

    This is a problem I've had since the last version of Pages, and I'm shocked it's not yet fixed. Please someone tell me I'm wrong.
    I have a 20-page document, with a lot of floated images. Now I want to insert a page between pages 1 and 2. If I do this, the text all moves, but all the images stay in place, completely destroying 20 pages worth of layout, requiring me to fix it all one by one. This seems insane.
    Is there really no way to do this properly? It's a pretty huge weakness that you can't use floating images if you ever want to modify the document in the future.

    There are essentially 3 different ways that a graphic can be placed on a page: 1) inline, which is basically treating a picture as a very large letter. The graphic moves as the text is edited but tends to leave massive line breaks. 2) floating, which lets the picture sit underneath or on top of the text. This has the drawback, as you note, of not moving with the text. 3) anchored, which combines the advantages of the first two. The graphic floats on top of the page (or underneath the text) but the anchor lets it move with the text.
    Pages has the first two modes but not the third. The only solution, if you want to call it that, is to edit the text thoroughly and add graphics only once you are satisfied your copy isn't going to be changed. (I know, for some of us, the text can change frequently while the basic layout stays the same - I have a couple brochures like that.) My second suggestion would be to find logical breaks so that you don't have 20 pages to redo when your edit totally blows your layout to smithereens. Meanwhile, use feedback to request this feature.

  • 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?

  • 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 to add a Cover Page to an existing document

    I have a Pages document created with a Word Processing template and with Facing Pages, page 1 beginning with the right page. All of the following Section breaks will begin with the right page as in a book. The space shown to the left of page 1 currently is a blank, grey area. I would like to use this space as a cover page.
    If I insert either a page break or section break at the top of page 1, it pushes page 1 down and to the left. That is not what I want. I would simply like to add the "cover" page to the left of page 1 (and continue to begin later sections/chapters at the right.
    Is that possible, and if so, how do I do it?

    PeterBreis0807 wrote:
    Odd pages are always to the right of Facing Pages in the layout.
    A cover page should also be on the right and if need be, followed by a blank page, which you can do with a Page Break.
    Hello again Peter, thanks for the advice.
    What I actually did was insert the cursor at the beginning of page 1, and in the Menu, I did an Insert > Choose... and selected a one-page cover document. With a bit of trial and error, I was able to get the artwork to completely cover the page. However, the cover is now labeled as page 1 and I would prefer it and the following blank page to not be page numbered. I consider this as a temporary work-around so I could export to a pdf file.
    Now, what I would like to do further is add a new chapter to the end of the file. In the Insert > Sections menu, I have previously created a “Chapter” Section but after adding it to the end of my document and changing the Header to read Chapter 2, it also changed all of the previous headers on the right facing pages. Not good :-(

  • How to increase page size in existing document and add margins uniformly.

    I have a long document that I must print out to PDF, but I must now increase the page size. I do not want to change the text at all; just increase the sizes of the margins. When I increase the page size , my text frame remains the original distance from left-hand margin. In other words, the top and bottom margins increase evenly, but for the left and right margins, only the right margin grows. This leaves the text frame shoved over to the left-hand side of the page (or towards the binding in a two-page spread).
    I would like for the page size to increase so that all margins increase in a uniform manner, that is, so that the text frame remains centered in the page, both horizontally and vertically. At present it is centered only vertically.
    Thanks very much.

    A word of caution is in order regarding changing from facing to non-facing and back again. If you have overridden master page items, you'll get a second, non-overridden copy on all the even-number pages when that half of the master page is re-applied. This applies to master text frames which override automatically when text flows into them as well as to objects you manually override. I think you'll find this particular technique also only works for master text frames, whereas the Layout Adjustment should work in all situations where frames snap to guides.

  • Inserting a page into a document

    I hate sections but whether I designate a Section or not, the program just goes ahead and does it. Then if I need to insert a page after the initial layout, and can't do it. Is there a work around here?

    Whatever version of Pages you are using (you haven't said) does not create Sections, you do.
    Sections do not make it impossible to insert extra pages or reorder existing pages.
    A Section Break is an invisible character inserted into the document, dividing it into what it says; "sections" (chapters if you will).
    A Section is a series of pages within a Word Processing document that share Headers and Footers, Layout and background images.
    The Section can be dragged into a different order in the Thumbnails, but the pages within the section do not change. They move together, otherwise you would scramble your text.

  • Can't add web page to existing document

    I am new to Acrobat 9 Pro (running on Win7). I love the feature where you can convert a web page to pdf and then add a wab page to an existing document. My probelm is that I saved one page as a pdf then went to a different link on that website that appears very similar and tried to add that page to the first one. As many times as I tried, my second page will not appear.
    I did try going to an entirely different website and adding a page to the very same document and I was successful.
    Is it possible that the program won't add the similar page because it is recognizing the page to be the same? Is there a setting to override this? I need to be able to save multiple web pages that appear the same way to one document quickly and easily.

    Thank you for your response. It is possible to do this but I need the 'Add web page to existing doc' feature to work for me. I will be converting a large number of similar pages to pdf and this feature would be perfect if it worked as it is intended. Going back later to insert pages is counter-productive for me.

  • How do I copy a page from one pdf  document to another?

    That was easy.Thank you.

    If you open both documents, you can drag a page from the Pages panel (on the left of the window) of one document and drop it into the Pages panel of another.
    You can also extract one or more pages from a document to create a new document, and then insert the pages from this new document into another. In Acrobat 11 you 'd do this by doing:
    Tools > Pages > Extract
    and then:
    Tools > Pages > Insert from File
