Adobe InDesign/auto page numbering

Advertisement


Question
I need to set up auto page numbering on a left and right A master and position
the autp page number so that it clears the top and outside trims by 1/4 of an
inch.

Answer
Kayla,

1. Go to the master page and make a text frame at the correct spot for your layout.

2. Put your text cursor inside the frame.

3. Type Cmd+Opt+Shift+N (mac) Ctrl+Alt+Shift+N (PC)

4. This will put a letter "A" in the frame. This is the autopage number. On each page in the layout it will show up as the correct number.
