Title: Unable to Save/Use Master Pages
Post by: IberoMedia on March 18, 2015, 07:46:53 PM
Hello,

I have followed directions on how to create master pages; but after I have converted a document to master page, I am unable to use the given master page.

Please view video to follow through what I am doing to convert document to master page, and how I try to use it, but the newly saved master page does not display in the drop down for me to select: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4aq8SYiuXNI

I am using OS Debian
Scribus 1.4.1

Thank you

hi iberoMedia

a master page is part of a scribus document.
when you create a new document, you may import a masterpage from another document. (the third icon in the 'edit master pages' window...)

Thank you utnik. I was thinking about master pages as some sort of program preset style.  :)

After reading your answer, I was able to apply custom master page of another document to the intended documents.
