Page insert doesn’t seem to work right…

[Sean Lloyd]

Hi,

No one has attempted to anwer this yet. I am really kind of stuck until I resolve this. Anyone with information would be very much appreicated. Thanks.

Hi Sean, I’m an InDesign expert and am here to assist you… please take the following steps;

1. on your InDesign software click on the pages panel (by your top right of your desktop).

2. Using the Type tool, click to place the insertion point where you want the break to occur.

3. Choose Type > Insert Break Character, and then choose page break.

this will easily move the text to the next page (creating blank page) without messing up your entire document arrangement.

hope this helps THANKS

Hi Sarah,

Thanks so much for responding to my question. I tried what you suggested several times, but it’s still not working. After what you mentioned I went to layout/ pages/insert page and still the page is left by itself.

I had a similar issue before, but I was able to work around it by creating a new page at the bottom of the document and then moving it, but that is no longer working.

I will try to redo everything from the point where I am resizing the document and see if that helps anything.

If you have any other suggestions let me know, and thanks again for your help. I really appreciate it..

PS If I open a new document with facing pages and do an insert it works fine, so it must likely be something in my book layout that’s causing the problem…

Hi Sean, thanks for the feedback

did you add and link the text fame after adding a new page at the last newly created?

this will enable the texts in each text frame link together. and hope you software is up to date?

i will make a tutorial video for you…. hang on.

Hi Sarah.

Thanks so much. I actually think that may have done it. I don’t think I was selecting both sides of the layout like it looks like you did in your video.

I really appreciate it and sorry for the late reply, I’ve been working on other parts of my project and just checked in here tonight.

Thanks, again!

I think I may have been wrong. Tried it today and it still doesn’t work.

Just as an update for anyone unfortuate enough to have to have been following this…it works until I use the liquid page rule and scale to resize the whole book, then when I try to insert a page it doesn’t work.

Thanks again for the replies on this thread…
