Starting a new publication from scratch
Although design templates can simplify your design choices, you can just as easily start out from scratch with a new, blank publication. To make life easier you can adopt a particular document type (regular/normal, folded, small/large publication, web page) as a starting point.
To start a new publication (via Startup Wizard):
-
Open PagePlus to display the initial Startup Wizard (if switched on).
– or -
With PagePlus loaded, choose New… from the File menu and then select New from Startup Wizard…. -
Select Start New Publication.
-
From the list on the left, select a document type and then examine the samples on the right. Click the sample that is the closest match to the document you want to create.
– or -
You can define a custom publication by clicking Custom Page Setup….
Note: You can always adjust a desktop publication’s page setup later. For details, see Setting up a publication. -
Click OK to open a new publication with a blank page.
At start up, if you click (or press Escape) from the Startup Wizard, PagePlus opens a blank document using default page properties.
To start a new default publication:
-
Click New Publication on the Standard toolbar (only if Startup Wizard is turned off).
– or -
Choose New from the File menu and select New Publication.
