How does one have multiple page formats in a Writer (or other OO) document -
either with or without use of Page styles? [Example: a page without columns
(that is, 1 column) followed by a page with two columns, followed by a page
without columns.]
I have tried:
- Formatting one page, then inserting a page break, then formatting the next
page.
- Setting a page style for one page, then inserting a page break, then
setting a page style for the next page.
Either way it breaks: whenever the page format is changed, or a new page
style is invoked, it seems to apply to the whole document.
This seems like a common problem, and thus pretty basic requirement, for a
word processor, but I've wasted a lot of time looking for an answer. The
Wiki
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/OOo3_User_Guides/Writer_Guide/Working_with_page_styles>
spuriously touches on this topic - in the context of a cover page followed
by default pages - and then dithers into an irrelevant discussion of how to
set page style. [One might infer that the only way it even contemplates
using multiple styles per page is in that context of a cover page and later
pages.] It never returns to the question of how to invoke multiple styles
in a document.
I can't believe this is not possible. Anyone know the secret?
