Hi folks,

I'm trying to set up a large-print for my aged mother.

In the footer I'd like page numbers.

On the master pages, I can select Text->Insert->Fields but then everything is greyed out. The same applies to all the other options under Insert.  I suspect I've missed a key option during set-up, but where?

Any help wpould be appreciated!

You would need a Text Frame on the master page plus have the text cursor active in that frame (not just the Text Frame selected, with the Move Tool)

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Hi Carl123....

Many thanks for the rapid response. That was the solution. Simple really, but I was in Word Processor mode, where you just double-click the footer and get options displayed. You live and learn! 

Cheers from misty Germany.
