New Document: # pages and start page?

I am starting a new document, the beginning of what will be a 180 page ebook. In terms of the start page, do I use that to allow pages for my cover, title page, toc, etc.?
Or can I just start with page one and insert pages later for the toc and all?

Consider using the InDesign Book feature (File > New > Book...) with your document. This feature allows you to manage multiple InDesign documents, sync styles, inks, etc. and other controls.
I have a long document book consisting of:
Cover
Main TOC document listing chapters and appendix
10 Chapters (with chapter level TOC)
Appendix of terms chapter
The book allows for managing page numbers across the documents, the multiple TOC for each chapter (the chapter level TOCs do not pick up the Paragraph styles of the other chapters, whereas the main TOC is designed to search each document of the book), packaging, printing and exporting of the entire book, etc.
If it interests you, check out Michael Murphy's long document videos at The InDesigner website.

  • HT1414 using Windows 7 OS, I had downloaded the new ioS 6 and started the update on the iPhone 4 and everything was going routine until the phone had been going thought what I though

    I attempted to update my iPhone 4 from ioS 5 to ioS 6 from iTunes on my laptop using Windows 7 OS, I had downloaded the new ioS 6 and started the update on the iPhone 4 and everything seemed to be going routine until the phone had been going thought what I though was the update process, when an error window opened up and it said that an error had occured and the iPhone 4 could not be updated. I have never had a problem like this before and it caught me off guard and I did not note all the information in the error window, but it did not appear to indicate anything other than that I would have to abort the update and did not think it would be that big of a problem. I tried to disconnect the phone and was going to do the update at a different time when I could investigate what the problem was. However I could not get iTunes to recognize the iPhone 4 after this and still cannot. After rebooting the laptop a few times and also trying to reset the phone a few times as well, I just have a dead phone. The iPhone 4 just has the image of a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an icon for iTunes. I have tried to get iTunes to recognize the iPhone, but cannot get it to. I am unable to do anything else with the phone. It seems like the phone is in a state where it does not have enough software loaded to do anything or I don’t know how to get it to. Any suggestions how I can get my iPhone 4 back into service. Note: iTunes still recognizes my iPad and iPods, so iTunes seems to be okay to me. Craig

    I had this problem on my iPod Touch 4g. Just press the home and sleep button. Wait and it will give an iTunes and cable logo. Now you can put in DFU mode (Hold Sleep and Home button 10 seconds and then release the power button kand keep pressing on the home button.) Now you will be able to restore it in iTunes.

  • HT4796 Hi, I've just bought a new Macbook Pro and started migrating from PC but the remaining time is about 70 hours long, I just wanted to know if that timing is normal and if not, does leaving running my MacBook that time can affect it?

    70 hours...  no, it's not normal but it can't hurt your Mac to be running for that amount of time.

  • HT204074 Does anyone know if I purchase coverage/support through apple on my i-pad would it also cover my i-pod/I-tunes? My i-tunes library is all messed up and I want to know if I can wipe library clean, buy a new i-pad and start fresh? Cheers Lisa

    Does anyone know if you can wipe your i-tunes library clean and buy a new i-pod and start fresh (purchase new songs). My i tunes library is all messed up and I just want to start fresh.

    You purchase the extended AppleCare (or AppleCare+) warranty foe each specific device. It is not transferable to another device.
    iTunes purchases are lock to the Apple ID that purchased them.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Can I add a new Ipod Shuffle and start a new playlist under my account if my original Ipod Shuffle is full?

    If my original Ipod Shuffle is full, and I want to get a new Ipod Shuffle and start a new playlist, can this be done without compromising the first playlist?

    Yes.  I have a 1st gen shuffle, a 2nd gen shuffle, and a "bigger" iPod (plus an iPhone).  They can all connect to iTunes at the same time, and be set up independently.
    However, if your old shuffle is "full," you can delete song you no longer want on it and add new songs.  You don't need to get a new shuffle, just to get more space for new songs.

  • IOS Pages & Keynote - New Document spins and that's all...

    On both iPad and iOS, my Pages and Keynote applications have started hanging, when trying to open a new template - even blank! I have removed the applications and reinstalled. It clearly is fresh, since I have to reload documents and reinitiate the iCloud choice. But the new document behavior has not changed.
    It just spins....

    Looks like it's an iCloud problem. I turn that off, it goes away.

  • Using a PDF as a Document Template in SharePoint 2010: "New Document" icon and action

    Hi,
    I have to create a document template in SharePoint 2010 using a PDF. After much searching I have learned to install Reader on the SharePoint server to bring in AcroPDF.dll
    and set the OpenControl for PDFs in DOCICON.xml to be "AdobeAcrobat.OpenDocuments".
    After taking these steps I can check PDFs in and out of SharePoint, and edit PDFs as I would edit an MS Office document.
    However two problems remain with creating new documents based upon a PDF document template.
    1) The PDF icon does not appear in the New Document dropdown. This makes sense since I never referenced a 32x32 icon in the SharePoint config files. Where would I place the icon image file and which configuration file would I edit to use that image file, and how?
    The last three document templates are PDFs.
    The second problem I face is that when I click one of the document templates above that is a PDF, nothing happens. I have tried this with Acrobat installed on both the client and the server. It would be preferable to insert a copy of the PDF document used as a template without having to use Acrobat at all.
    Is there any resolution to either of these problems?

    According to what i found the image needs to be 16x16.
    See if this works.
    Edit the DOCICON.XML file to include the PDF icon
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML
    Edit the DOCICON.XML file (I open it in NotePad, you can also use the built-in XML Editor)
    Ignore the section <ByProgID> and scroll down to the <ByExtension> section of the file
    Within the <ByExtension> section, insert a <Mapping Key=”pdf” Value=”pdficon_small.gif” /> attribute. The easiest way is to copy an existing one – I usually just copy the line that starts <Mapping Key=”png”… and replace the parameters for Key and Value (see image below for example).
    Note: Do not take shortcuts and copy/paste from here. 99% of problems with PDF icons not being displayed are due to errors made in the DOCICON.XML file
    Save and close the file

  • New Document - sizing and color profile

    I am using Photoshop CS6 13.0.1 x64 and I can't seem to get the settings for a new document to stick.
    When I make a new document my color profile never matches my color settings (RGB: Adobe RGB (1998); CMYK: U.S. Sheetfed Coated v2; Convert to Working RGB; Convert to Working CMYK; Ask when opening), it always is reset to sRGB. Also, when I create a new document it doesn't seem to remember either what I used last or what is in my clipboard - it always resets to 1 x 67.
    Is there some hidden setting I'm missing?

    Short standard answer: If prefs don't stick, you have permissions issues. Verify your user privileges and file permissions on the prefs folder.

  • Use a pdf as a document template, New Document icon and action

    I am looking to use an editable pdf as a new document template for a content type.  I uploaded the pdf successfully, but when I select the new document from the template options, it attempts to open the pdf, and then provides the error message:
    Message from webpage
    The document could not be created. 
    The required application may not be installed properly, or the template for this document library cannot be opened.
    Please try the following:
    1. Check the General Settings for this document library for the name of the template, and install the application necessary for opening the template. If the application was set to install on first use, run the application and then try creating a new document
    again.
    2.  If you have permission to modify this document library, go to General Settings for the library and configure a new template.
    OK   
    I have already setup the docicon.xml with the following entry for pdf's:
    <Mapping Key="pdf" Value="pdficon_small.gif"/>
    PDF's are behaving appropriately throughout the environment, but I am unable to get the 'New Document' from a pdf template functioning.  Does this capability exist?
    Thanks!

    For Content Types, it only recognizes Office document types. In order to add PDFs, you would need to build a custom solution or purchase a 3rd party product (such as http://www.pdfshareforms.com/pdf-share-forms-enterprise/).

  • CS6 New Document - Units and Increments - Ruler Units Defaulting Back to Picas

    After setting the Units and Increments prefs to inches, InDesign defaults back to picas when creating a new document. Any suggestions? Should I rebuild my prefs? Or should I just give up and revert to my conversion chart from school?

    Make the change with no files open.

  • HT3224 I am new to Mac and started transferring data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  Connection was lost once I started and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring Information' screen.  How do I get out of this screen to attempt the connection again?

    II am new to Mac and was trying to transfer data from my PC to my new Macbook Pro.  The connection was lost however and now my Pro is stuck on the 'Transferring you nformation' screen.  How do I get out of this screen so I can attempt the connection again?  Is it safe to force shut down of my Mac and will it still prompt me through all the setup process again?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    If your Mac and PC are connected by Ethernet, unplug and plug that cable again. If not, you have to turn off the MacBook by holding the Power button.
    In the next startup, try to transfer your files again. It's important not to interrupt the transfer process, because in most cases, you will stop it and you won't be able to resume it

  • BBP_BS_GROUP_BE for new document type and number range

    Hi gurus,
    I am working on Classic scenario in SRM and currently have used the above BADI to use a different document type and number range when creating the PO in the backend system. It all works fine. The only thing is I noticed that the BE_DOC_TYPE field in the shopping cart is still reflected as 'EC' even though the PO created in ECC is for example EC1. My question: Is this standard SRM? If so, is it common to leave this field as it is or is it advisable for us to change the document type to EC1 as well? Also, is there any implication in standard SRM reporting and downstream processes that you are aware of?
    Appreciate any advice on the above.
    Cheers!
    Sf

    We have ended up having to populate the document type on a custom field or alternatively replace the existing one.
