I have created a 20 page document, I have ticked off the 'Shuffles' inserted Special Characters > Current Page Numbers, changed the 'Numbering & Section' on physical page one to 'i, ii, iii' etc. as this will be the cover as I don't want a number on the cover. I have then made a new 'Section' begin (using 1,2,3, etc.) on physical/actual page two so that the page starts and is named as page 1 (not 2). I need the document a spreads for my client to use on-screen (as in an interactive PDF) but the printer wants them as single pages. In order to add bleeds all the way around each page as my printer requests, I need to separate all the pages. If I uncheck Facing Pages in Document Setup, (I get the message, screenshot 2, to which I say NO) and this works perfectly and separates my pages into single pages, I can then add my bleeds to the individual pages (the bleeds that are needed in the spine area, I already have the bleeds on the three other sides of the pages). However, if I try to click Facing Pages back on my pages then mess up. Physical/actual page two (but named as page 1) is now sitting alone and directly under my front cover which has meant my page numbers, although still in numerical order, are now on the wrong side of the spreads (screenshot 3 and 4), physical page two should be sitting in a spread to the left of physical page three and so on. Is there any way, when I click my Facing Pages back on that they will return to how they were before switching them off. I have tried doing all this without adding the 'Sections' to the Cover and physical page two and the Facing Pages return to normal, the 'Sections' seem to be messing with the page order (and my mind 🤣). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
