1. On the Resources pane, expand the Print context; right-click the Print section, and click
Sheet configuration.
2. Optionally, check Duplex to enable content to be printed on the back of each sheet. Your
printer must support duplex for this option to work. If Duplex is enabled, you can also
check Tumble to duplex pages as in a calendar, and Facing pages to have the margins
of the section switch alternately, so that pages are printed as if in a magazine or book.
3. If the option Same for all positions is checked, the same Master Page will be applied to
every page in the print section (and to both the front and the back side of the page if
duplex printing is enabled). Uncheck this option.
4. Decide which Master Page should be linked to which sheet (position): click the downward
pointing arrow after Master Page Front and select a Master Page.
If Duplex is enabled, you can also select a Master Page for the back of the sheet and
consequently, check Omit Master Page Back in case of an empty back page to omit
the specified Master Page on the last backside of a section if that page is empty. That
page will then also be skipped from the page count unless the page numbers continue on
the next section (see "Configuring page numbers" on page502).
Note that if the Omit empty back side for Last or Single sheet option (see "General
options" on page1026) is checked as well, the empty backside will not appear in the
output at all and will not be counted in any case.
5. Optionally, decide which Media should be linked to each sheet.
6. If output documents can be so long that they cannot fit in one envelope, you may check
the Repeat sheet configuration option to have the sheet configuration repeat every n
number of pages.
7. Click OK to save the settings and close the dialog.
Note
Master Pages, Media and Duplex printing options can also be set in a Control Script (see
"Control Scripts" on page913 and "Control Script API" on page1405). This is especially
useful when you need identical sections with different settings.
Deleting a Master Page
To delete a Master Page, expand the Master pages folder on the Resources pane, right-click
the master page, and click Delete.
