    Lesson 4. Page Layout > Finishing the footers

    Finishing the footers

    To finish the footers, you’ll change their paragraph format and then copy the footer variables to the left master page.

    1.
    Choose Format > Paragraphs > Designer to display the Paragraph Designer.

    2.
    In the Default Font properties, change the Family to Myriad-Roman (Windows) or Myriad (Mac OS and Unix), the Size to 8 (points), the Weight to Bold, and the Spread to 10.

    3.
    Click Update All and close the Paragraph Designer.

    Now you’ll copy the footer variables to the left master page.

    4.
    Click Running H/F 1 in the footer once to select it. (If you double-click it by mistake, the Variables dialog box appears. Click Cancel and try again.)

    5.
    Shift-click Running H/F 2 in the footer to extend the selection.

    6.
    Choose Edit > Copy.

    7.
    Click the Previous Page button () in the status bar to display the Left master page.

    8.
    Click in the footer text frame and choose Edit > Paste. (You may need to scroll down to see the footer text frame.) Because you did not press Tab, the variables appear at the left side of the text frame.

    9.
    Choose View > Body Pages to display the body pages again, and scroll through the document. The running footer now appears on each page.

    10.
    Save the document.

    Note

    FrameMaker 7.0 allows you to define and use as many as twelve different running headers and footers in a document. This can be very useful if you want different headers and footers on different page layouts, such as the first page of a document.
