PageMaker Tutorial (Viewing Pages, Choosing preset page views)

Pagemaker Tutorial - Basic
When you create a publication, PageMaker opens a publication window that contains an empty page centered on the pasteboard. The page and pasteboard, where you lay out text and graphics, are similar to the work space used in traditional paste-up.


a.     The toolbox includes tools for creating or editing objects.
b.     Margins appear as dotted or pink lines.
c.     Page icons show the master pages (L) for left, and R for Right) and the regular pages in the publication.
d.    Rulers help you align objects on the page.
e.    The Colors and Styles palettes are used to add, delete and edit colors
     and styles.
f.     The pasteboard stores items for later use.
g.    The Control palette provides commands for making precise changes to text and graphics.

Viewing Pages:
You can view your pages at several preset magnifications. Alternatively, you can use the zoom tool to specify an area of the page to view, and increase or decrease its magnification at the same time. To change the part of the page or pasteboard the displays at the current view or magnification level, you can scroll within the window using the scroll bars or the hand tool.

Choosing preset page views:
Use commands  on the View menu to display the page or pasteboard at preset views. A page retains its view until you change the view again.
View settings serve various purposes. Use Fit in Window when you need to check the overall composition of a page or a two-page spread; use Actual Size to see text and graphics as they will appear when printed; and choose View>Zoom To> 200% Size or 400% Size when precision is imperative. To find or view objects on the pasteboard, use Entire Pasteboard.
