Say, for example, you want to reduce the page size towards the right, you would put a reference point in any of the left most spheres to ensure that the left part of the page is kept constant, while the right side is adjusted. Each sphere is a reference from which the rest of the adjustments to the dimensions are made. Remember the reference point, we discussed earlier? That is the left most button with the 9 small spheres. Now, on the Control Panel at the top, you can specify your desired dimensions. This is the indication that the Page tool is active on this particular page. If you look carefully, the first page on the left-hand side has some handles along its four sides. The above screenshot shows a two-page spread. Using the Page tool is simple and straightforward but you must remember to set the correct reference point. You might want to change the dimensions of a specific page if you are preparing flyers or brochures that fold at specific pages. What if you wanted to change the dimensions of only a single page? The Page tool on the toolbar is your answer. Do keep in mind that all the pages in the document will be affected by this. You can change the page dimensions of the pages in your document by going to the File menu and selecting Document Setup… You can then specify your new Width and Height values here. Of course, you can also click and drag the pages to the desired position.Ī neat feature is that you can also move pages from one open document to other. You can specify the page number that you want to move and the page number that you want to either move after, before, or at the start or end of the document. If you want to move a page after a particular page number, you can use the Move Pages… command in the same menu. You can also choose to insert the pages before, after, at the start, or at the end of the document. Say, for example, you want to insert a page after page number 2, specify them in this box to insert the page. This opens up a dialog box wherein you can specify exactly how many pages you want to insert and where you want them to be inserted. If you want to insert more than 1 page in the document, click the Insert Pages… command in the menu. Clicking the menu button on the Pages panel opens up a menu, which allows you to have more control over page management. You can also make use of some more options to work with pages.

You can also select multiple pages by pressing Ctrl on Windows or Command on Mac and selecting the desired pages. You can create pages and re-arrange them simply by dragging and dropping them as desired within the Pages panel. The third button is called Delete selected pages and allows you to delete the selected pages. This allows you to create a page right next to the page currently selected in the Pages panel. The second button is called Create new page. This lets you change the dimensions of the page, say from A4 to US Letter or A3. The first button is called Edit page size. The bottom of the Pages panel has three buttons. Let us explore some of the options available in this panel. Clicking the Pages button on the Panel Bar opens the flyout showing various options that are possible with this document. We see that this document has two pages in two spreads. However, we will use the Pages panel in the Panel Bar as it is much easier and intuitive. Most of these functions are accessed from the Pages menu under the Layout main menu. InDesign provides a lot of easy ways to insert, remove, or duplicate pages.

Page management is important if you are dealing with a document having multiple pages.
