178 Chapter 11 Designing Your Own Document Templates

If you want to design a new template from scratch, begin with a Blank template. It

may be useful to proceed through all of the sections in this chapter in order.

Step 1: Setting Up the Document

Before you get into the deeper levels of designing the document, you should be sure

to specify the general “size and shape” of the document. Doing this first will ensure

consistency throughout the document. To set up your document, take care of these

tasks first:

1 Set paper size and orientation.

Consider the paper size and orientation that will be used for the finished document.

For instance, if you are creating a template for envelopes, be sure that you have

selected the correct envelope size (or created a custom size) before you proceed with

further document design. To learn about setting the paper size and orientation, see

“Setting Page Orientation and Size” on page 91.

2 Set page margins.

Define the body text area and header and footer text areas. If your document will be

bound, you can set different margins for right- and left-facing pages. Document

margins are set in the Document Inspector. For more information, see “Setting Page

Margins” on page 92 and “Creating a Document with Left- and Right-Facing Pages” on

page 96.

3 Insert page numbering.

If your document requires page numbering or footnotes, set these up using the

Document Inspector. For more information, see “Adding Headers and Footers, Page

Numbers, and Footnotes” on page 96.

Placing Master Objects

If you want to add images that appear in the background on every page of your

document (for example, watermarks), place them first. If you create new sections in

your document, they will automatically inherit the master objects that you have

already placed. You can remove or reposition the master objects in subsequent

sections, if you want.
