Freddy Davis Posted January 21 Posted January 21 For some reason, my autoflow is a little wonky in certain spots. I have both headers and footers on my pages, and sometimes the autoflow flows from the bottom of one page to the header of the next. Mostly I have figured out how to reroute those, but as you can see on the screen below, there are some that are completely off. The footer from page 12 wants to flow into the header of page 14, and there is a second flow line that goes straight down from the footer on 12 directly to page 14. Also, I can't enter text into the footer on page 12. The text flow from page 13 to 14 is correct. There is also some text that seems to have copied (duplicated, not just moved there) from page 13 to the end of the book. (see the 3rd attachment) Also the image on page 13 does not seem movable. If I click on it, it doesn't highlight so I can work with it. I can highlight the image on page 15 and do whatever I want with it, but I'm not sure how it actually got on that page. How do I solve this? Thanks Quote

Text Right, Text Left, Header Right, etc. Always name everything on Master Pages.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
Freddy Davis Posted January 21 Author Posted January 21 This is a book, and the entire thing is based on the double master pages. When I try to impose the master page on the pages where I am having trouble, it isn't imposing the change. Quote
MikeTO Posted January 21 Posted January 21 The linking of a body text frame to a header text frame can happen when you add, move, or delete a single page in a facing-page document and apply a master page. Here's another spread on the issue. That thread isn't tagged with a bug ID so I can't confirm if it's fixed for 2.6 but spreads were completely changed in 2.6 so I'm crossing my fingers. You can fix this issue manually - break the link between a main frame and a header/footer frame and then link the main frame to the next main frame. Reapply the master to the spread but I can't recall if you will also need to manually edit the header or footer. Alternatively, clear the master and then apply it which would fix it for sure.

Freddy Davis Posted January 22 Author Posted January 22 I think I got it. Thanks for your help. MikeTO 1 Quote
