I used to be able to page up and down whole pages in InDesign by pressing ALT and Page Up or Down. Now, with no Page Up and Down keys, I'm forced to move in small steps with Function + Arrow keys. Any way to get that full page functionality back?

Well, looks like the OP wasn't actually talking about a Mac anyway!

On a keyboard without a numeric keypad (like a laptop)? No, that I know of. I will typically plug in my full keyboard into a USB port on my laptop when I'm using my laptop with InDesign for that specific reason.

Now, you can use on-screen options:

  • Choose View > Fit Spread in Window (or double click the Hand tool), then use the left and right triangle buttons to navigate spread by spread

  • Double click the hypen between page numbers in the Pages panel

Advance page by page

Fit spread to layout window:

alt + cmd + 0

Advance spread by spread
fn + alt + arrow down / arrow up

Regards,
Uwe

Thanks, FN+Alt+Arrow moves up or down by single page, and Shift+FN+Arrow moves 2 pages at a time, like Alt+Page Up or Down used to do with a full keyboard. Why didn't I try that before I asked a dumb question? Oh, well.

Sorry, I didn't realize you were on Windows. I saw the "Fn" key which is on a Mac laptop and assumed your were on a Mac.
