[Framers] Master Page Issue

Ant, I believe Allison was asking how to force a graphic to appear on the last page--not how to create a master page.

Allison, one way to do this would be to use the master page maps:

1.  Create a master page called "Last Page," using Ant's instructions below.  Include the graphics you want to appear on the last page.
2.  Delete the last-page graphics from "Left" Master Page.
3.  Create a paragraph tag such as "Last."
4.  Select View > Reference Pages and scroll to the MasterPageMaps page.
5.  Add a new row for the table.
6.  For the Paragraph Tag Name, enter "Last."
7.  For the next 2 columns (Right-Handed and Left-Handed Master Pages), enter "Last Page." Tip: if your Right and Left master pages differ and
you want to preserve this, create two master pages:
"Last Left Page" and "Last Right Page." Give them
each a row in the MasterPageMaps table.)
8.  Save.
9.  Return to the body page view in the document. At the end, add an empty paragraph with the "Last" tag.
10. Select Format > Page Layout > Apply Master pages (Alt + O + L + M--good one to memorize. :) ) You should see the graphics on the last page and none others.

Hope this helps!
Anita

   Only jumping in ahead of John because I'm in a different time zone...

   Open your Release Notes base document.

   In Menu bar, select Format > Page Layout > New Master page.

   In the dialog box, give your new master page a name.  FM will tell you
   it has been created.

   In Menu bar, select View > Master Pages

   Find the view of your new master page.

   To delete any unwanted text frames, place cursor on edge of bounding
   box so that a type cursor appears.

   Press CTRL and left click.  Frame will show as active with black
   squares on corners and middle of edges.  Press Delete key.

   To change size, shape, and position of other text frame, make it
   active, then with cursor inside the frame, left click and select Object
   properties.

   In the dialog box, select Dimensions.  Make changes in the new dialog
   box.

   To add graphics at the bottom of the page:

   In Menu bar, select File > Import > File

   Browse for (correctly sized) logo file, click enter, select resolution
   radio button and click Set button.

   With the image active, right click and select Object properties to set
   its offset position at the bottom of the page.

   Repeat for second logo.

   Save.

   [I usually add a graphics frame to my master pages, and place the
   imported image file inside that.  But that's because I sometimes need
   to put different images in the same place for different documents.]

   I do hope this is what you needed...

   Best regards,

   Ant

     This template will be used for every release so a Master Page is the
     preferred way to go.
     As file is likely to have edits right up until the last moment and
     the graphic is actually 2 graphics, dealing with it at the end of
     the process would a royal pain.
     So, how do I go about having a "last page" master page?

     If I understand correctly, this is not a job for a master page,
     unless you create a special Master Page Last.
     You want the image to appear on the last page, which in this case is
     a left page.
     But if you use master page = Left, then it will also appear on p2.
     So you need either a custom Master Page for Last with the image, or
     else don't use a master page for this image. Simply add it to the
     last page when everything else is in order.

     I have a Master Page problem that I'm not sure how to fix (I really
     hate Master Pages!)
     99% of the time my Release Notes are only 2 pages, max. This is not
     one of those times.
     Page 1 is easy to set up properly, but it's the last page I'm having
     problems with as I have a particular graphic that needs to go at the
     bottom of the page.
     Currently, when I go to Master Page view, there are 3 pages:
     * First (3 of 3)
     * Right (2 of 3)
     * Left (1 of 3)
     [cid:image002.jpg at 01D24738.F4DE0F60]
     Ordinarily, I just use the first 2 pages so the graphic is on page
     Left (1 of 3) then make sure I delete the last (empty) page before
     creating the PDF.
     I have moved the graphic onto Right (2 of 3) but that doesn't work
     as it shows up on page 3 not page 4 of the finished document.
     How do I get the graphic to show up on the last page (I want an even
     number of pages).
