Erica Gamet shows you how to add a footer and other information you need to repeat across. So, if you change the section marker in doc 2 and save, all you have to do is update links. A running header or running head is an important editorial design element for catalogs, magazines, books and most long format documents. Chapter title is the first level of numbering in this document, and Chapter H: tells InDesign to type Chapter 1: in front of the chapter title in the first chapter, Chapter 2: in the second chapter, and so on. Making a footer (or header) in InDesign is easy, but not always a straightforward process for newcomers. Note that you must make sure that "variables" are checked in the book Sync Options.Ģ- The one I would go for (it's a dirty cheat but.)īased on the example you provided: in your Doc 2 Master page, go Text > Insert special character > Marks > Section Marker (assuming you have defined them for each section).ĭoc 3 to 7: place Doc 2 as a graphic in your Master pages. Just insert your text tool in any of the table cells and from table set up, choose headers and footers for your existing table.
Apart for time consuming process of manually entering section names, an other obvious problem is that you will have to create a variable for each section. Insert this variable in the docs Master pages where you want the name of section to continue. So, AFAIK, you must find a workaround in order to achieve this missing feature.ġ- Create a custom text variable. Nor will work trying to get Section Marker, that are also document based. Unfortunately, styled-based variables won't work across different documents.
