Sections on Pages 5.1

Hello macintosh family!
I would like to ask how can I change the document margins within a different section in the same document?

There is only one set of Margins in a Pages document.
You can have the smallest possible margin and use left and right paragraph indents to inset the parts you want to have larger margins, or you can construct the different parts in different documents and merge them in a pdf.

  • New Page numbers for Sections in Pages 5.2

    Hi, I can't figure out to how to start numbering pages from 1 in a new section using Pages 5.2.
    I've tried to add new sections via both the Inspector and Insert > Add Section Break, but when I attempt to insert page numbers in the header of a new section, it's still not starting at 1.

    See what I mean? I've successfully created the new section, but it still wants number the first page of a section with 2.

  • How do I create sections in page layout mode?

    The "section break" option is always greyed out in page layout mode.
    But I want to create a newsletter with a cover page and then the other three pages will have different headers and footers and I want repeating images on them. This would seem to be quite normal for newsletters. Even the template newsletters do this, but they do do it manually, repeating the images for each page, and manually creating a header and footer for each page.
    I can do it word processing mode, but this is a page layout task - as indicated by Apple including the newsletter templates in the page layout templates.
    Is there anyway to create sections in page layout mode??

    If you compare Page Layout mode with Word Processing mode, you'll see that every page is a separate section.
    In Page Layout, you've got headers & footers, although it's possible some of Apple's Page Layout templates have it turned off, and you can turn off "Use previous headers & footers" on the first page after your cover page, so it seems to me like it's possible to do what you're trying to accomplish.
    A "section break" is a special character you place in the body text of a word processing document to force a new section (see also: page, column, layout, paragraph, and line breaks). In Page Layout, there is no body, and sections/pages are controlled by the Page Thumbnail View.

  • What has happened to the wonderful, independent,  DTP section of Pages?

    What has happened to the wonderful, separate, Desk Top Publishing section of Pages?
    Since upgrading, I am no longer able to:
    See my column markers when  layout view is enabled
    I cannot identify the colours I regularly use in my magazine layouts as those colours are no longer shown on the palette
    I cannot find the flow buttons that used to exist in the bottom right hand corner of the text boxes and can no longer get text flowing from one page to another.
    I work in collaboration with someone else in magazine production and we need to be able to liaise with regard to the formatting.   this is now very difficult.   I need this sorted ASAP as we are working to a deadline.

  • How do I name or rename sections in Pages word processing mode?

    How do I name or rename sections in Pages word processing mode?

    Those pages/sections you see in the when clicking on the Section button are Captured pages that you can use if you like. You can read about Captured pages and all about sections in Chapter 3 of the Pages User Guide. The Guide is downloadable from your Pages Help menu.
    To delete sections you delete the section break. To see the sections break turn on the Invisible characters by going View menu > Show invisibles. Text in the section will stay if you don't delete it.
    Add sections you do by adding section breaks. To name them you have to learn about capturing pages. Read about it on page 60 and 269.

  • Create content dependent sections and page orientations?

    Hi there. I'm creating a large document that I would like to create a section in the begining that uses roman page numbers. I know I can do this by placing a section marker on a particalur page, but the problem is that when the content changes, the page number remains the same. I'm wondering if instead of creating a section marker for a page, that I can create a section marker within the content of my document.
    My other question is similair. I have some pages that need to be in landscape, and I know how to change the page orientation, but again, as the content changes, that section may be pushed to a different page.
    Thanks

    I read Pages User Guide. On page 56, it says that you can use predefined sections or pages. When i select ANY template, the only sections I get are BLANK, and TEXT.
    It's clear that you haven't found all the templates yet. Most have several differently styled sections that may be added to your document.
    Now that you've read the user guide, do some exploring. Use File > New from Template Chooser.
    You'll see something like:
    After you have made a decision and opened a template, you can add Sections using the +Sections icon in the Menu Bar:
    Note the variety of layouts for just this one template.
    Things will smooth out as you gain experience. Don't try to do everything at once and you'll be fine.

  • Does anyone know how to remove the sections in pages so that I can work with individual pages?

  • How do I break up existing sections in pages

    My entire doc is one big section and I need to be able to break them up...how can I add new section in order to delet one or two pages.  Because it is in one big section...it will delete everything.

    I think what you are seeking is "Section Break" (Pages > Insert > Section Break).
    This thread tells you a bit more:

  • How do I get a section break/page break when the item is greyed out?

    I've created an A4 document in word processing mode, with four identical A6 text boxes covering the entire page. Then I've created a second page with four more A6 text boxes so I can print a postcard on both sides of the card. Trouble is, Pages has made two extra text pages that I don't want, the first is linked to Pages 1 and 2, and the second is separate. I can't create a section break or page break because the command is greyed out, so I can't delete page 3. When I try and delete page 4, which is a stand alone page, it also deletes pages 2,3 and 4, leaving me with just page 1!
    I don't have any problem with page breaks or section breaks in an ordinary A4 document with just one text box on a page, but I often want to create multiple text boxes and when I do I have always had this problem, ever since Pages was first introduced. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong, please?

    Thank you, Yvan, but I've tried that. Firstly, I unchecked the headers and footers tick box in the Inspector because I want the postcards to be exactly A6 size, that is, one quarter of A4. I've tried making the lower two text boxes slightly smaller (which I don't really want to do, because I want them A6 size) but I still can't get the insertion point to appear below the text box – it stays resolutely in the next page and won't go back up to the previous page. Any further ideas? Thank you.

  • How do I move a section of Pages within a document ?

    Hi there,
    I am writing my thesis and I want to move a group of 6 pages (representing a chapter) from one area of my document to another. I inserted a 'Section Break' at the end of the page preceeding the first page of my grouping, and inserted another at the end of the 6th page of my grouping. I've done this for all the chapter groupings of my document.
    When I look at the thumbnail view on the side of the document, I can see that each chapter grouping is enclosed by a yellow line box if I click on a page within the chapter grouping. So far so good, I think. Except now when I click of one of those groupings and try to drag it and insert it in between two other other chapter groupings i.e. I'm trying to reorganise my chapter order, it doesn't move the section I want to move at all.
    Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong ? Thanks in advance.
    Matt.

    Thanks for your advice Peter.
    I continued to play around with trying to move the sections around (I didn't change any sectioning to what I had previously done). I found out - and I don't know why - that I could not move sections upwards as I was trying to do...only downwards.
    So I eventually reorganised my sections by strategically moving them downwards until I had the document looking like I wanted it to. Still strikes me as odd. It was like doing one of those puzzles, deciding which block goes where without moving up, in as few moves as possible - but I eventually got it done.

  • Can you make a mail merge from a page layout?  I can successfully do so from the word processing section of pages

    I am trying to mailmerge to a form and need to center certain sections on the same line.  Impossible to accomplish in the word processing portion because it wants to center the entire line.  I would like to use the page layout section but the "enter merge field" is gray.
    I have been able to accomplish the task using Filemaker but some of my constituents do not have Filemaker and I would like to make a template for them to use with numbers, excel,etc.

    Can't see what Layout mode could possibly offer that you don't have in Word Processing mode.
    Tried using centre tabs? You are using tabs, and not just hammering away at the spacebar?

  • Create a new Section in Pages Beta

    I've uploaded my Pages document in which I create new sections to modify the Header I use.
    Can't see how to create a new section in iCloud Pages Beta.

    Good morning graywright,
    It sounds as if what you are wanting to do in the Pages application is to insert a Page Break. Follow the steps in this article -
    Pages '09: Inserting a Page Break
    In a word processing document, click where you want the break to occur, and then choose Insert > Page Break. 
    To remove a page break, click at the beginning of the line that follows the break and press the Delete key.
    In a page layout document, to insert a new page in your document, click Pages in the toolbar and choose from the template page options available.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,
    Brett L

  • How do I minimize a section in Pages 5.1

    I simply want to add a page to a Pages document.  When I add one, for whatever reason it adds a page, but puts the yellow box around it and the prior page, then has another page after that section.  Why is it doing this, I just want to add one page.

    Yeah my question is, how do I minimize that section down to one page, not two? All I know is, the older version of Pages was much easier, when I laste updated, it changed functions and made things more difficult. Frustrated!!
    JH,
    Put the cursor where you want to end the first section and Insert > Section Break.
