Teacher: How to impose and also not to make page numbers move

I teach Graphic design and want to students to be able to impose a 12 page document. Is there a way that InDesign will impose the pages so I can see them in the inDesign PAGE layout window?
Also, With automated numbering. If I decide to have the students impose manually, how do I prevent the page numbers from changing when they move a page?
Thanks,
Tony

You need to convert the automatic page numbers to manual numbers to avoid them moving. This means going into each page number frame and changing the auto number to an absolute number.
Then, if you turn OFF "Allow Document Pages to Shuffle" you will be able to move the pages around.
There are scripts that will automate the process. And InDesign has its own Print Booklet command which if you print to PDF will do it electronically.
But if you want them to learn what the process is really all about, I agree that doing it manually is a great lesson.
BTW, I'm sure you know, but others might not, the easy way to figure out which pages go with which others, is to remember the rule that the two numbers for the pages should add up to one more than the last number in the group.
So, for an 8-page signature, page 1 is next to page 8 which adds up to 9.
Page 2 is next to page 7 which adds up to 9.
Page 3 is next to page 6 which adds up to 9.
And page 4 is next to page 5 which adds up to 9.
I've taught that little rule to my classes and they love it.

    Hi Parga,
    You need to declare the variable at Interface controller and need to map this at the context level.
    Like a variable declared at web dynpro component context level can be used among all views.
    every web dynpro component have an Interface component. this can be used in other components where this perticular component is used it is also have a Context.
    For more info Take Usage of Component Controller Examples.

    thanks

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    #In the location bar where you normally type in a web address, type '''about:config''' and hit Enter.<br><br>
    #If you see a window which says "This might void your warranty!", click the button which says "I'll be careful, I promise" so you can continue with the next step.<br><br>
    #In the filter at the top, type: '''keyword.URL'''<br><br>
    #Double click it and remove whatever's in there and replace it with http://www.google.com/search?q= and then click OK.<br><br>
    #Close the tab
    The URL to add in "keyword.URL" becomes a link in this post, so right click it and choose "Copy Link Location" to copy it to the Windows clipboard. Then hit CTRL+V to paste it. Saves you having to type the whole thing.
    '''To reset your home page, do the following'''.<br><br>
    * Go to the site you want to set as your homepage.<br><br>
    * Click the Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''General'''.<br><br>
    * Make sure it says "''Show My Homepage''" in the first dropdown menu.<br><br>
    * Click the button called "'''Use Current Pages'''" to set the homepage to the one you have on the screen.<br>
    If this suggestion resolves the problem for you, please click the '''Solved it''' button ''next to this post'' after you log in into the forum. This will help others searching for a solution to the same problem.

    Hi SreeArjun,
    Welcome to the Forums  
    As per the query we understood that you are unable to boot the system in your Lenovo U410 laptop.
    Remove the hard drive and try to boot the system into BIOS and check if any error occurs? Also insert the hard drive and check what happens after installing the HDD.
     Best regards,

  • Since downloading iCloud, I am now receiving emails twice and also notes and photos are being doubled up.  Any ideas?

    Since downloading iCloud, I am now receiving emails twice and also notes and photos are being doubled up on my phone.  Any ideas?

    iCloud is not downloaded, it is a part of iOS5.
    Do you possibly have iCloud and a MobileMe account set up on the device?  If so, remove the MobileMe account.

  • I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my computer is slow and will not open some pages  can i uninstall

    I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my mac is really really slow and will not open some pages. Can I uninstall?

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
    Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Want Thunderbird look (theme) from 2.0.0.4. Where is it and if not, please make it. I don't like the newer theme

    1. Want Thunderbird look (theme) from 2.0.0.24 Where is it and if not, please make it. I don't like the newer theme.
    2. When these newer Thunderbirds set up they do not, unless one knows about software, leave the choice of erasing email from the carriers site. Please fix so that with the automatic NON POP setup the option page lets you not save emails on the carrier's (outside computer). FIX THIS. The automatic setup should also offer POP. FIX THIS TOO

    1. Tools menu (ALT+T) > Add-ons > get add-ons and scroll to the bottom and look on the bottom right for complete thems
    2. The default is IMAP. If you want something else specify it to the wizard. Where the wizard is aware of both POP and IMAP you are offered a choice, but nothing stops you from manually specifying the account setting.
    2a. Nothing will see the return of mail being removed from the server on download by default. To many expect their mail to stay on the server forever as a defacto backup. Rightly or wrongly the default was changed because people like me could no longer put up with the whining of people who were not happy their mail moved off the server.

  • I have 10.6.8 and have installed two new printers HP 8610 and an Epson 7880 and can not find the Page Set-up menu anywhere in the applications I a trying to print from. There are no page sizes, paper types, appearsto be locked on a 13x19 size but It.

    Hi to the Mac Folks,
    I have 10.6.8 and have installed two new printers HP 8610 and an Epson 7880 and can not find the Page Set-up menu anywhere in the applications I a trying to print from. This is regardless of either printer selected.
    I primarily print photos from Photoshop CS5.  The term Page Set-up has gone missing in the file pull down menu. Can't make any choices  There are no page sizes, paper types, appearsto be locked on a 13x19 size paper format. Either being too large or too small.
    Saw a 2008 locked issue about this however none of the help fit my situation, options discussed are not available to me.
    Preview has no "Page Setup" - or does it?
    Does the constant struggle with computer compatability weirdness issues ever end or is it a enslavement scheme?

    Hey,
    if you know the name(s) of the root folder(s) you want to access (eg. by making a note on the Windows side) then you can make them appear by just doing Shift-Command-G in Finder ("Go to Folder…"), and entering the full path to the required folders.  You can then navigate all the contents as normal.

    How do I put page number at the center of the bottom of page one and the rest of the page numbers at top right corner?

    Put a section break at the bottom of page 1
    Then insert your page number in the footer of page 1.
    Go to page 2 and click in the body of the text;
    Inspector > Layout > Section > uncheck Use Previous Headers & Footers > click in Header on page > insert > Page Number
