theelijahmacdougall Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Hey guys. I'm typesetting my wife's book, and for whatever reason, I can't seem to get the autoflow text to flow from page 1, and so on chronologically. Instead it's flowing to only odd numbered pages. What gives? Unfortunately, I've found only one AFPub self publishing tutorial, and the last time I did something like this was back in college on inDesign. Thanks!

firstdefence Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 How do you have the document set up, what master pages do you have? Is it possible to make a copy of the document and strip out all of the text so we have a skeleton document we can look at?

theelijahmacdougall Posted June 3, 2020 Author Share Posted June 3, 2020 Sure thing! Here's the skeleton version. For reference I started to manually change the flow at the beginning then immediately realized it was going to take forever.

Old Bruce Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 You don't have the Text Frames connected on the master pages, left to right. This should auto flow if you place the text file in the first page and then hold down the Shift key and click on the Page 3 overflow triangle. As many pages as are necessary will be created.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theelijahmacdougall Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Hey @Old Bruce, thank you so much! Saw this the other day when I was heading into work and forget to let you know that your advice was invaluable. Thank you so much friend! jmwellborn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
