DesertDenizen Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 I'm new to using Affinity Publisher for book layout, having previously only used MS Word. How do I set the gutter for a document? To provide context, this is a novel and what I mean by the gutter is the allowance for the binding. For two pages the verso and recto pages would have mirrored gutters. In MS Word, I just set the gutter allowance. How do I do this in Publisher? I've searched for an answer but can't quite find one that makes sense for a novel or a nonfiction book.

You need to set up a two page spread as a Master Page and then you can set inner and outer margins.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
