Question

None Master

Hello,

I'm trying to edit the page margins of a document. Some pages are based on A-Master, others are based on [None]. I changed the A-Master margins. For the others, not being able to edit [None], I modified the margins of the individual pages.

Issue: When I add new pages using Pages > Insert Pages, these pages have the old margins declared when creating the document. How can I redefine the default margins associated with [None]?

Thank you. The problem remains for new pages, unfortunately.

If you've changed them individually they will no longer be linked to that attribute on the master.

Document Setup. Enter new margins and htese will be the margins for orphaned pages.

 

Or…

 

Make a new parent page with the margins you want. If you want blank pages then leave the parent page blank. You can also base it on Parent A and override then delete any objects on Parent A you don’t want. Use this as the parent for any new pages. Unfortunately you can only define the margins for orphaned pages in Document Setup when creating a new document.

Hi @35214682 , You can select all of the pages in the Pages panel that have none applied then set their margins via Layout>Margins and Columns:

Looks to me liek this might work...

Deselect all pages in the pages panel, then go to File > Document Setup.. and change the margins. That appears to change only the None master.
