Setting up a form with 2 master pages in InDesign

[Tom-D-Signs]

Sorry to keep asking all these little InDesign questions but I am recreating a file which is 6 - 11x17s and i wanted to have 2 seperate master pages to work from so I have a cover page and content pages seperate. I've found where I edit the initial master page but dont see where to create another. Also should i initially set the document up as 6 tabloid pages or set it up as 1 and add them as needed so i can select which master page they use.

Once again I really appreciate any help

When you open the "Pages" pallete - click on the little arrow and you will see an option to add a new Master page. You can name it and/or base it on an existing Master page. It will then drop in the top section of the Pages pallete. Then you can drag and drop it to use it.

Let me know if you have any other questions.


Sorry forgot to answer the second part. Got so excited I could actually help with a question! LOL! As far as if you should setup 6 or 1, that is really up to you. If you are going to use the 6 several different times and there are things that are specificly staying the same on each one the I would setup six. If it only happens once for each and there is a part that is the same on each then one should be enough. Make any sense?! Hope so!
