When adding a new page in Affinity Publisher, can you get publisher to adjust for the different margin sizes when it pumps pages from right to left?


Recommended Posts

The attached pic is what results when I add a new page before already-existing-and-laid-out pages in Affinity Publisher. The Subsequent pages do not adjust to take into account the different margin locations, so I have to go back and readjust every single page. Given that the margins are the same size, but only in different places on the page, is there a way to get Affinity to autocorrect for this different and save me a lot of work?

Such kind of automatic re-positioning according to switching left / right margins only applies to objects which were created as master page objects.

So if I put text boxes into the master pages and put my content into them, they would reposition correctly?

Yes, at least quite likely and better as in your sample. Avoid single master pages in a facing page document but use master spreads only.
(p.s.: and don't paste the copied text flow content on the master page directly but on its frames on the document pages)
