TWIMC@Serif,
I've found Affinity Publisher to have the singularly most --inane-- tutorials I've encountered in my addled memory. In this case [Page Numbers], "Alice in Wonderland" is offered as the example.
Really?
Thanks for the tip-off. But I have a <print publication> deadline to meet. I've no time for the lidded hookah-dude!
Can't you simply make a pdf available as a bone for the rest of us who have no time for 1/2 cock-eyed rabbit holes? Perhaps my question is too simple for the affinities of this sophisticated space. But I shall ask you to indulge your patience to forebear my plebeian concerns. And I do apologize for my less-than-dulcet tone. But really...
To the point: I am a lowly writer of words to be printed on paper [& other weightless mediums]. I need to <selectively> place <HEADINGS> [at the top of my pages] in the following manner:
I am working in an 8.5x11in [.75/.25 margined] doc.
Where applicable, Left pages are pp#/Book Title. Right pages are Chapter Titles/pp#
What, in the name of Bloody fn Mary, is the RULERED [nifty pun, eh?] PLACEMENT ON THE PAGE FOR THE HEADER WHERE THIS NFO IS PLACED IN MY MASTER PAGES??? Do I need to make an <EXTRA> text box? T'would seem so.
If so, WHERE in the rulered space of the doc??? I tried an x ratio [á la Pages app] of .5 >.7 from zed/zero & the y >>> across the page to the margin and failed ridiculously. But if you look at the twaddle of the tutorial vid, there is such a text box -- all-be-it bottom [right justified text]. What the F is that box's xy & placement when at the HEADER? How do I execute it? Is it above/beyond the body copy text box or what???
I'm just a Hawaiian Yank. I really don't mean to be a royal arse for the nice Brits doing the nice tutorials -- but I've spent A LOT of wasted time on this issue. And to no avail. Not even Google can answer me. Assistance is greatly appreciated. Mahalo nui loa [Thank you very much!]
