New master page column layout

2011-02-11 Thread Tim Pann
Hello again all,

Using FM 9 unstructured:

I want to create a new master page that's a landscape legal size,
meaning 8.5 tall and 14 wide.

I did this by creating an empty master page, and then setting its page
size to 8.5 x 14. But I get a warning saying this:

The new column layout in filename seems to overlap other objects on
the Right master page. Are you sure you want to do this?

I don't understand what this means, but I click OK. Then all of my
master pages, including other custom master pages as well as Right and
Left, are suddenly 8.5 x 14, in their original orientation.

Anybody understand how I can fix this?

Thank you,
Tim

You can't mix page sizes in an FM file. Orientation, yes (rotated pages). But 
sizes, no. You have to use a separate file for the legal pages. This really 
isn't much of a burden -- you just have to get the numbering set right for that 
file (and maybe the one after it) in the book window. For instance, assuming 
that the legal pages occur in the middle of a chapter, you'd have to set 
Chapter Number for that file and the one that follows it to be the same as the 
previous file. 

HTH!
