Moving Pages
Moving and arranging pages is a common part of working with multiple page documents. You can simply drag pages in the Pages panel or use the Move Page command on the Options menu. When you drag pages, the cursor indicates new page location. With the Move Page command, you can move pages within the current document or to another open document. When you move the pages, objects in the slug and bleed areas are also moved. Page numbers in the slug area display a number rather than the pasteboard index entry.
Move Pages by Dragging
Select the Pages panel.
Click the Options menu, and then select a move related option:
- Allow Document Pages to Shuffle. Enables or disables the shuffling of document pages.
- Allow Selected Spread to Shuffle. Enables or disables the shuffling of selected spread pages.
Drag a page next to or between spread pages.
A straight black line indicates the move location with a shuffle. A bracket black line indicates the move location with attachment.
