Ok, thanks again for all of your help.

It did actually work. I edited the cells in the master page with three different paragraph styles and it carried over to the unedited pages. However the first three pages which I had already edited (unlinked from the master) I had to do manually as you said. So one last question, is there a way to relink elements back to the master? I am aware that I might lose my text, but I just changed the borders of the table and the three edited pages wont update to this change because the tables in those pages are now unlinked.

So I see it now. Once I start editing the text in the table, it becomes unlinked, which makes sense. But it means that I can't go back and globally adjust the paragraph styles, correct? If not, no biggie. I can manage with this. I think I got it all working now. Thanks a lot for your help.

Yes I see the solid bar and the dashed bar. I can guess that means linked and unlinked. How do I relink them?

Yes, I think I got it. Thanks

Yes, I think I got it now. Everything works as you describe. The only thing which is not working is if I change the alignment on the MAster page table, it doesn't copy to the other pages. I heard the table function in Publisher is pretty weak, so maybe that's just a limitation of the software. I guess that's easy enough to do manually on each page. Thanks a lot for your help.

Yes, Old Bruce, I was trying to figure out which one was correct. I had it backwards. So page 1 should have a grey outline and then I can edit a single page, correct? Now I think I see it. When it is grey, it is edit detached as walt.farrell described. When it is blue it is linked. This still doesn't help me. Maybe it's just not possible and I have to decide on my final layout before I start editing individual pages.

Hello, thanks for your answer. How do I know if I am doing edit linked or edit detached? But I guess it doesn't matter because according to your second point, global changes would no longer be possible. Say I just want to put a different picture into a picture placeholder on each of the pages and then later I want to change the size of the placeholder globally. How would I go about doing this? Thanks again.

Hello, I am making build sheets for my restaurant and I want to create a layout that will have different photos/text on each page, but I want to make a Master page so I can go back later and possibly change some of the elements of the layout, e.g. photo placing, table borders, etc. When I set up a Master page, and then start to edit on page 1, all of the pages update to this. I understand that this is the point of a master page. So is there a way to do it with pages or how do I use templates for this purpose? Here is a screen shot of how I want my layout now so I can start entering the text and photos, but I'm sure I'll want to change some aspects of the main layout in the future because I'm a tinkerer. Thanks for any help.

Hello, could someone help me set up a document to print an A2 size poster on four individual A4 sheets so I can arrange them together and put them on my restaurant door? I've tried searching but I guess I don't know the proper terminology because I haven't found anything. Thanks in advance. EDIT: I figured it out. It's the Print setting "Tiled"

I am experiencing Andyz's first problem using copied cells from Google Sheets. No matter what I select in the table (or not select), all the columns paste into the first cell. Is this not possible with google sheets? I don't have Microsoft Excel to test it. Thanks
