The Page Design tab is always on the ribbon. Use it to set up the pages of your publication: their size, guides, order, and look.
- Template: Change Template moves your text and pictures into another design. Extra Content opens the pane that holds what had no place in the new design. See Change a publication's template.
- Page Setup: choose margins, orientation, and page size, and open guide settings. A small button in the corner opens the Page Setup window. See Page size, margins, and layout and Rulers, guides, and snapping.
- Layout: turn on snapping to guides or to objects. See Rulers, guides, and snapping.
- Pages: delete, move, and rename pages, and choose a master page. See Add, move, and delete pages and Master pages, headers, and page numbers.
- Schemes: pick a color scheme or a font scheme. See Color and font schemes.
- Page Background: set a color, gradient, or picture behind the page. See Color and font schemes.
These pages are generated from JeffPub's built-in Help (resources/help/en in the repository) and are replaced on each update, so edits belong in the repository.
