Can you give me some hints on step by step here?? All I want to do is set up a "template" for a page with two columns of text.? On come pages, I might shorten a column and add an image.? On other pages I might delete the first column only.? I want the template set up sot that I don't have to create, position, etc the text boxes on every single page I start.? I played with the guides thing but can't figure out what you mean. ? Thanks for your help.

What am I doing wrong? you can't edit the text from a master page after having applied it to a page. and this is by design. what you can do is - set guides in the master pages - add the text frames (as groups) to the scrapbook - drag and drop the scrapbook items to the page or paste them to page to maintain their position ciao a.l.e _______________________________________________ scribus mailing list scribus at lists.scribus.info http://lists.scribus.info/mailman/listinfo/scribus -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
