Format Article/Page Setup

Format articles/Page Setup

You can define individual basic settings and formatting for articles: e.g. change the page size and page orientation (portrait/landscape format) or activate headers and footers.

It is possible to generally define the settings described below for (exclusively) new articles. To do this, use "Page Setup" in the main menu under Information.

Format articles/Page Setup

First take the article in editing, then click on "Set up page" in the "Edit" menu bar.

The dialogue window now provides you with extensive options for formatting the article. You can determine the size and orientation of the article/page, e.g. letter in portrait format and margins, activate headers and footers, divide an article into columns and define frames.

Note on headers and footers: Empty headers and/or footers are not displayed as known from MS Word, for example. To make the lines visible and fill them, you must first select the print layout.

Then click in the header or footer of the article about one centimeter from the edge.
