Adobe InDesign/InDesign document setup question

Expert: James Fritz - 12/10/2009


Question
I am trying to set up a multi-page booklet (probably about 28 pages). However, I would like the very last page to have a panel that folds out. How can I format the document so that just certain spreads have an additional panel?
Thank you in advance for any help you can offer!

Answer
Bethany,

Sorry for the delay in response.

In order to have a page fold out inside indesign, first layout everything as normal for the 1st 28 pages.

1. go to the pages panel menu and uncheck "allow document pages to shuffle"
2. add a new page to the end of the document (page 29)
3. Carefully drag the new page (29) to the left or right of the page that you want to fold out. It will be a little difficult the 1st time you try it, but just pay attention your cursor as it will show you when it is adding the page to the current spread.
