Tips

  • If you have a multiple-page document like a catalog or brochure, use parent pages. With parent pages, you can automatically insert pages with specific layout elements. You can add to each page without disturbing the parent layout.
  • If your added page shows up in the wrong place, you can easily rearrange it using the "Move Pages" option in the submenu of the Pages palette.
