REPORTER 22.1

Page Masters

Page masters


Page masters can be used to automatically add objects to every page in the report. For example you may want to have your project name written on the bottom right corner of every page in the report. You could do this by having a standard page and either use the page library or import it each time you want to create a new page. This will work, however if in the future you want to edit the project name, you would need to edit each page individually.

An alternative is to use page masters. A page master is a type of template used to keep each page looking the same (eg such as using a company logo). Each REPORTER template has one associated master page and any objects that you put on that page will automatically appear on every page in the template.

The master page is accessed via a toggle, either by clicking on the page master icon (see image on the right), pressing the 'm' key, or using View ... Page master . From within this view, the master page can be edited in exactly the same manner as you would interact with a normal page. To close the master page and return to the normal page view, simply click the toggle as before.
