Hello,

First I have created a new document with these settings :

 

So it created a document with one single page.

 

Then I have done File/Import/File and chosen a Word document.

So I have imported the Word document inside the FM document.

Problem : FM has imported the Word document inside the FM document but with facing pages (instead of single pages). Why ?

 

Correct answer Winfried Reng

But I have set this document to be "single sided" ("recto"), so I don't understand why I have facing page.


HI

In View | Options change Page Scrolling.

Variable or Facing Pages is what you see.

Best regards, Winfried

I believe this is what you asked for. If you want facing pages, you will need to check "Recto verso"
