RE: Copy selected master pages into template
There's no way to do this directly from your source document. Create an import_from file using a new blank document. Import the master pages from your current file into that document. In the import_from doc, delete all the master pages until you have only the two master pages you want to import into all the other files. Use this new file as your source to import into all of the other docs. -Carla -Original Message- From: framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-boun...@lists.frameusers.com] On Behalf Of Nancy Allison Hi, all.

RE: Copy selected master pages into template
Nancy, Open the document with the new master pages. Delete all of the master pages except the ones that you want to import into other documents. Leave this document open. Create a book file that contains all of the target documents, which do not have to be open. From the book file, select all of the target documents. From the file menu select Import and Formats. Deselect all of the options except Page Layouts. Now you will be importing only your new master pages into all of your target documents. If the names of the new master pages are different, they will be added to the existing masters in the target. If the names are the same, the old will be replaced by the new.

It depends... Are these custom master pages, or changes you've made to the default Left and Right? If the latter, you're home free -- just delete any other master pages from the doc (or a copy), and you're ready to import from it. In the destination doc, select File Import Formats, select the source doc, deselect everything except Page Layouts, and click Import. If the two you've created are custom master pages, there's a rub: you can't delete the default Left and Right pages, so importing master pages from this source doc will import the default ones as well. If the defaults are the same in the source as the destination (or can be made so easily), it's no problem -- just delete any other custom pages you don't want to propagate, and import away. Alternatively, I'm sure it's possible, using FrameScript or FrameAC, to import only custom master pages, but I don't recall seeing a script that does that. HTH! Richard Richard G.

Thank you, everyone! Obviously, this technique can work for anything that is imported . . . I love this list! --Nancy On Fri, Jan 30, 2009 at 11:59 AM, Owen, Clint wrote: Nancy, Open the document with the new master pages.
