14. Master Pages
Using master pages
You can use the master pages in each layout as a blueprint for building your layout pages. For starters, they automatically contain a layout’s margin and column guides. Then there are the items that you add to a master page yourself, such as headers, footers, picture boxes, logos, lines, and the all-important automatic page numbering command. Any item that you don’t want to bother having to reconstruct over and over again on your layout pages can originate from a master page; it will appear automatically on every layout page that master page is applied to.
