Position and order pages


You can position pages by dragging them to a new location in the drawing window. This option is available only in the Custom layout of multipage view. For more information about multipage view modes, see To arrange pages in multipage view. Moving pages in the drawing window does not affect the order of the pages in the document.

You can reorder pages in a document, including facing pages. Note, however, that moving only one of the facing pages in a spread may change the document structure and affect even the appearance of pages that you are not trying to move.

To position a page

Back to Top
1 In multipage view (View Multipage View), click the Multipage View Settings button in the Pages docker (Window Dockers Pages), and click Custom .
2 Click the Pick tool in the toolbox.
3 In the drawing window, click the page name label of the page that you want to move, and when the pointer changes to a position cursor , drag the page to a new position.

*

The position of pages is maintained from one session to the next.

When you move a page in multipage view, you can snap it to another page just like you snap objects to page elements. To enable snapping pages to page elements (edges, edge midpoints, and page center), click View Snap To Page.

To reorder pages

Back to Top
Do one of the following:
In the Pages docker (Window Dockers Pages), drag a page to a new location in the page list.
In the document navigator, drag a page tab to a new location.

*

By default, items in the Pages docker are displayed in a list. If you prefer to work with large thumbnails, drag the Resize list slider to the right until the thumbnails are the size you want.

To move a facing page

Back to Top
1 In the Pages docker (Window Dockers Pages), click the Options button , and click Show Spreads to disable the command.
2 Drag a facing page to a new location in the page list.

*

You can also move a facing page by dragging its page tab to a new location in the document navigator.

To move both facing pages in a spread at once, you must first enable the Show Spreads command.
