Adobe InDesign/Indesign page numbering

Advertisement


Question
I'm busy working on my masters dissertation,and I have
divided the A3 document into two pieces (both with facing
pages) - a landscape one that will open with a conventional
left hand binding, and a smaller one that will open with a
right hand binding. My question is: how do I get indesign to
change my page numbers for the smaller doc to be opposite to
the left hand document?

Answer
Hi Stacey, thanks for the question.

However, I don't have enough information to clearly understand where your problem is. If you think you can help me understand how your document is numbering its pages now, what isn't working how you'd like it to, and how you would like it to work, I might be able to help find a solution.

Thanks, let me know.

Experience

After starting my design career using QuarkXPress and PageMaker for many years, the release of InDesign instantly caught my eye. Being one of the reasons for Adobe buying Aldus, I knew this would change the publishing world very quickly. I started using InDesign's first release and haven't looked back. I have dedicated my work and much of my spare time using InDesign to its fullest—and it's paid off. My workflow is quicker, my computer runs smoother, and my files print cleaner and without problem.
