InDesign :: Text Frames / TOC / Page Order
Mar 27, 2014
I made this gorgeous table of contents with nice paragraph styles and a text frame on the master page. I put the text in the first frame and that filled my pages as intented. After that I used my paragraphs titles and the table of contents was done. But now I have a problem because I need to change the page order. I'm completely lost cause now my document is a mess. So is it possible to make a table of contents without using connected text frames because I know that I will have to change page order later and I want to avoid the mess I just made?

Any way to preserve spaces between text boxes or frames, in other words if i designed a template consist of two text boxes the space between the first and the second box is 9.77 mm then i removed some text from the first text box (auto fitting to content) so the height of the first text box will decrease and the space between the two text boxes (9.77 mm) will increase, what i want to do is to fix this space so if any text box decreased in height the other text box lefted up or down to fix this space (9.77 mm).

When I draw a frame, suddenly In-Design has started to put a slightly larger area around it which also repels text. I must have inadvertently invoked this feature somehow, but as I'm not sure what I did to cause it I can't work out how to rid myself of its effect.

From the File>New I take the A4 - 1 Column template and then add a side by side page and no page number appear on the right page.
If I then add text so that it overflows the pages 1 and 2 and creates two new ones the left hand one now has page 3 but still no page numbers on the right.
If add text to a single A4 1 Column and overflows it creates a second page with page number as expected, if I then convert it to side by side it has the page number on the right.
My question is why it works in the second method and not with the first, when setting up a new document it is the path one would expect to set the pages as you want first.
Is there any way of showing the text areas (frames) just not when you click in them? as one does to show grids.

I'm printing a document trying to get two out of each page. I imported text, formatted it within Indesign cs3 and not it's time to copy the block and paste it onto the right side of the page. But the pasted version had a .50 tab at the first word which does not exist on the original side. How do I fix this?

I have created a new master with a header, footer and main content region. The main content needs to be editable for each page I add to the document but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it! Has this changed since the first Indesign CS?
So the header and footer will remain the same throughout the document - if I change that in the master it will then change throughout. The text region will also remain the same throughout but I should be able to add content to that region on each page I create in my document. At the moment I can't. It won't let me select that region I've created on any of the pages in my document.

Been working forever on a lengthy project with lotsa text and lotsa of photos inline with the text.
Whenever I do any minor modifications anywhere in the text or spacing, of course all the photos move to the wrong places.
Unless the photo is a small one and is placed truly within the text, in which case I can anchor it and it stays where it belongs.
but sometimes the photos w/captions (grouped) take up a full page.
Then there is no text on the page to anchor them to.
Is there anyway to anchor them to the text on the previous page?

After moving a page in my document the master page elements no longer display on screen or in print. If I move the page to a different location in the document the master displays but if it is in the specific position that it needs to be it will not display. The document has multiple Masters and others do work on the page but the one that I need will not. I've tried deleting the page and adding a new one and that does not fix the problem. I've checked and "Hide Master Items" is not checked. The page in question is in position 48 with F-Master applied. If I move it to position 49 it works, 50, it works, 51, or any other it works. If I apply a different master to the page, it works. If I delete the page, add a new page and apply F-Master it still does not work. The only page that this problem is happening on is page 48.

Trying to set up a datamerge file to create multi page spread documents with fields on different pages. Attempting to set it up so it's as automated as possible as there are up to 20 different merge documents needing to merge with up to 100 different csv records from the same file each week . The merge documents have different and repeated merge fields on most pages.
I've set it up so that the document has facing pages, and most pages have images spread across the whole of the spread. the pages preview fine, they are created ok when using 'Create Merged Document' although the page numbers continue from one document to another (another problem). but when I come to export to pdf, then the merge only shows the image on the left spread but on both left and right spread single pages, and the page numbers don't show the correct page numbers eg it will go p1 p2 p1 p2 etc all the way through the document instead of p1 p2 p3 - p20 etc. I don't want to have to merge first then pdf but can't understand why the images and page numbers are not showing correctly.

Indesign CS6: I've years of extensive experience using Master Pages. Now, however, when I insert a single page in a facing page document, the headers shift off the page. I've tried everything I can think of to stop this. I'm not using liquid layout or any of those layout things.
This is very problematic as I do textbooks with hundreds of graphics and I either have to manually move all the master page items on every page after an insertion; or I have to shift all graphics manually to the next page after moving those to the next page, and the next, and so on.
I'm praying this is just a "hey, you must have X set to X and by deselecting it you'll be fine."

I am using ID CS5.5 on Win 7 pro.
I have a booked series of documents. So far, the table of contents entries have been behaving themselve... until today.
The very next entries are for the "Enertek Family Groups" with two entries (so far). Those are the Initiator Family and the Strong ARM family. These are on pages 153-155.
Why are these entries, which are in the previous section "Patriarchal Family Groups", out of order here? I checked the page numbers and they are correct. The Enertek entries DO occur before the Prototypical families.

I am working on an InDesign project that I am wanting to export as a SWF (because of animation). I have a few pages with scrollable text frames applied with the folio overlays panel. When I export the document as a SWF file, the scrollable text frames are rendered inactive. Is there a way to export as a SWF and keep the scrollable text frames intact? I do not want to export as an interactive PDF because of the use of animation.

I have an InDesign document, where I have defined some Object styles for my text frames - such as the size (width x hight) of the text frames, and this works fine.
I would like to do the same thing for my graphic frames, but I can't find this option. I figure it must be possible somehow?
An object style which makes the picture frame ex. 50 x 50 mm. with the picture centered in the frame.

(Photoshop CS6)I want to apply one and the same action to all pages of a pdf-file. The pages have a systematic error, too dark.
1. load pdf-file
2. select all pages
3. apply action, in my case change level, to all pages
4. save all pages as pdf-file, in the original page order.

How do I change the page order / print order of artboards in Illustrator CS6? I know it was a much griped-about neglect in previous versions once artboards were introduced, but surely it has been fixed by now. It's just I can't figure out how to do it. It is not intuitive by any means.

I need to create a 100 -150 magazine that will perfect bound. We have an InDesign file that we normally use for a 28 page saddle-stitch magazine. Should I use this same file and build on it? Or should I create separate files for the different sections? Can I bring the sections all together at some point? What about page numbering? I am obviously new to InDesign.

I have been trying to create a PDF of a 36 page document. However, when I get to page 6 I get a message 'downloading font' and then the programme hangs and I have to use windows task master to close it down. There are only three fonts being used on the page and according to Font Finder no fonts are missing. This is driving me crazy and I'm fast approaching my printers deadline.

We're running InDesign CS6 (version 8.0.1) in my office. When we override and delete a master page item from a page then save out the PDF, the deleted item still shows up in the PDF.
Example: We typeset a string of 250 trading cards. Each card is a separate page, in a single InDesign document, and are all based on one of several possible master pages. On the master page for a given card there are some graphic elements like symbols and directional arrows. During typesetting on a card that uses that specific master page we find one of the pointing arrows needs to be oriented in a different direction. We override the existing arrow and delete it, then replace it with the correct arrow (the arrows are placed graphics). The old arrow is no longer visible in the InDesign file. When it comes time to export the file for the printer we run a script that exports each page as a separate PDF. When we proof the PDFs, the card with the arrow adjustment still shows the deleted arrow, it is visible beneath the new arrow. If we save out that page by itself (with the script or manually), this problem doesn't occur. It only happens when we save out the entire set of cards at once or as a single, multi-page PDF. Though we typically use a script for the export, we still get the same result if we don't use the script.

Before I flame off on this crap CC version of ID: Why isn't my art centered when I resize my document? I have the center box selected at the upper left as I always do but as soon as I change the page size, the orientation is top left and all the art is hanging to the right and below my new page size. I'm not doing photo retouching. I can't read any of my menus.

I'm trying to create a 12 page interactive PDF with a set of 12 buttons (set in the master page) at the bottom of page that relates to each page. When clicked the button should you directly to that page.
I have used this method many times before in CS5 using Go to destination in Buttons and setting each page as a destination. It normally works great.
However, in CS6, once I export to interactive PDF and open in Acrobat Pro the buttons all seem to disappear once you click on the 3rd or 4th page button.
I have stripped the indesign doc back to include no other content - just the buttons, with no rollover effects etc but I am still having the same problem
I can supply the relevant indesign doc and exported PDF. One forum member suggested trying to open it in Acrobat Reader instead and it worked fine. This is OK to a point but I really need it opening in Acrobat Pro.

I have a 5 section book which I need to print. I usually export to a PDF then re import into a single indesign document. Then use print booklet to print the book. My problem is that I need bleed on my pages so I have set my page size to O/S A4 (32*22.5) When I export to PDF the pages end up A4. How can I export so the page size remains the same?

I am trying to print a double sided document and the printer has me print all the odd/right pages then flip paper and print the even/left pages.
The first page of the index in my InDesign file (page "a") begins on a left facing page in the document - but prints as a right facing page (starts a new piece of paper). This leaves a blank left-facing page before Page A - and the rest of the index prints with odd pages on right and even pages on left.
How do I eliminate this blank page and have "Page a" begin on a left facing page and the rest of the document print as odd-facing pages on left and even-facing pages on right?
I know there is a work around by overriding master page items and numbering settings - but I hope there is a way through InDesign to fix this.

In both my Indesign and Illustrator (CS6), I can set up the document as tabloid size but when I try to print there is no Tabloid or custom size available under paper size of print setup and it will only print smaller. I need to print a page that is 8.5X14 as 11X17 with marks and bleeds. Urgent (for work).
