A master page in Scribus is not a master layout. Except for page numbers and very limited bits, a master page in Scribus is a fixed content which you want to show alongside your dynamic content from your "normal" pages. In my mind, a Scribus master page works like pre-printed letter-head-paper waiting in my laser printer to have my dynamic content printed unto it. If you want master layouts, you can create those in separate Scribus documents. And then import them (even page-wise) as needed. Also if you want to be efficient, styles are very important to work with Scribus. hth Martin -- ZASKE Martin responsable G?G? BP 50 - Bassila - B?nin tel G?G? 66.66.11.11 tel pers 97.44.62.95
