How to add the cover sheet without affecting the numbering of the pages?

No response yet, so maybe I should change the question "Can we add a new section break at the beginning of a document?"

Or "How do you apply a section on a Master Page break so that when the Master Page is added to the beginning of a document, it does not change the numbering of the pages that follow?"

Thanks much for any help!

[INITIAL QUESTION: is it possible to add a cover sheet to an InDesign document without affecting the numbering of existing page?] I have a series of chapters in a book that should be displayed individually and require a cover sheet. Each chapter to start on a recto page, and the page numbering is set with a prefix (the chapter number) and a page number, for example, page 1.1. I can manage to add the map coverage without other brewing pages, but the cover page becomes always page 1.1 and the text begins on page 1.2 (even if it's a front page). Is it possible to do without having to manually reset the numbering of the pages in the Section and Numbering Options window?

Thanks for any help you can give – many of these documents to work on...  In addition, never submitted a question before, hope I did it correctly!  -JCI]

Thanks for the reply. I found a different way to keep the pages of shift, but adding that the two pages and then deleting one of them is simpler, thank you!  The numbering of the pages still changes, then perhaps there is no other way than to manually change the numbering and section options afterwards (or writing a script, which is well above my head!). The rats, because I have about 160 of these documents to do. Ah, well!

Thank you very much, once again!

    INITIAL QUESTION:

    Hello

    I have a script that inserts a new page (a cover page) at the beginning of a document (a chapter from a book) and made a few other changes. It works perfectly _except_ for the following defects:

    (1) shuffle pages (the first page of the document to be a front page; the rest facing pages and I want the cover to a recto page sheet).

    (2) Renumber pages (I want to the cover sheet to be a number Roman invisible page number 'i' and the first page of the document to be page 1.1.)

    (3) if I just renumber pages manually, I also have to retype all section names that have been inserted previously in the section marker field (I have about 160 documents at work, so...)

    Is it possible to have the script to avoid these problems? Please note that I inherited this script and know virtually nothing about the scripts. Any help that you can give - including all thoughts of if to come with such a scenario could even be possible - will be greatly appreciated! Here's the script (and thanks in advance!):

    myFolder var is Folder.selectDialog ("select a file");.
    var myFile;

    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.NEVER_INTERACT;

    If (myFolder! = null) {}
    myFile = myFolder.getFiles ();
    for (i = 0; i < myFile.length; i ++) {}
    App.Open (file (MyFile [i]));

    Insert the page at first and apply the master page
    app.activeDocument.pages.add (LocationOptions.AT_BEGINNING);
    var myMasterSpread = app.activeDocument.masterSpreads.item("C-WebP1");
    app.activeDocument.pages [0] .appliedMaster = myMasterSpread;

    find and remove '[Advanced version]' of the document
    app.findChangeTextOptions.includeMasterPages = true;
    app.findChangeTextOptions.caseSensitive = false;
    app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "[advance release];
    app.changeTextPreferences.changeTo = "";
    app.activeDocument.changeText ();
    app.findTextPreferences = null;
    app.changeTextPreferences = null;

    determine if the last page is empty, and if so, remove
    var Lpage = app.activeDocument.pages.lastItem ();
    If (Lpage.pageItems.length == 0 & & Lpage.guides.length == 0) {}
    Lpage.Remove ();
    }

    Save and close the file
    app.activeDocument.save (new File (myFile [i]));
    app.activeDocument.close ();

    }
    }

    app.scriptPreferences.userInteractionLevel = UserInteractionLevels.interactWithAll;

    Try this,

    if(myFolder != null){
        myFile = myFolder.getFiles();
        for(i=0; i

  • How to add music to iTunes without copying the music files

    How to add music to iTunes without music copied to an iTunes Media folder or anywhere else?

    I read the answer is to go into the advanced settings and uncheck "Copy files to iTunes Media when adding to library". Which is excellent and this option is not checked, but iTunes keep copy of the music into an iTunes Media folder...

    Anything ripped CD, converted, downloaded from the iTunes Store or added via the automatically add to iTunes folder will eventually iTunes Media. If you add a folder of files stored outside the media folder and the option is disabled, then iTunes should not be generating copies in the media folder. Can you describe a specific example where you can see the new arrival before and after importation?

    As a backup to one side and the migration of an iTunes library is much easier if all the content is organized inside the iTunes Media folder, but this is no reason not to try and find out why things are not behave correctly for you now.

    How to add the new column in existing table to our desired location?

    For example, I have to add the new column 'course' before the salary column in the emp table.

    places the data into a temporary table and recreate the table with the correct order of the columns, and then insert data to the table from the temporary table
