Terry is a dinosource of Adobe products. I was learning Photoshop 15 years ago and he was already teaching how to master it. Great source of knowledge.
This has been a game changer for me as I’ve watched a few videos on here and never got it until now. Thanks for giving such a clear and concise explanation on master pages.
I've been struggling to learn exactly how to set up Master Pages - after watching this, I totally get it. Terry is a gifted teacher and a pleasure to learn from.
Terry, I’ve just found you and am so glad. I’m new to InDesign and facing a print and ebook formatting. I haven’t watched all yet… but I’m working my way through. THANK YOU
Terry White, I also would like to give you a massive THANK YOU 😊. Three years ago, I studied animation and film. We lightly touched on InDesign, and then our tutor pretty much just left us to it. Your tutorials really saved my bacon and I ended up graduating, all thanks to you and Mike Hermes (he does Maya tutorials) ♥️👍.
Terry, thank you! Your guide was a helpful + accessible way to dive into the many possibilities of the master template process -- looking forward to checking out more!
Thank you very much for this video Mr. Terry, for long time I tried to find an answer, how to use two master pages. When ever I create the second master page it was not applying to the pages. Finally, I got an answer for it. Thank you very much.
26:18 Yes It is possible to convert document pages to master pages. Just select the document spread that you want to convert in the pages panel and go to the master pages options and choose master pages - select save as Master.
Hi Terry, I am learning a lot from you. I am putting together a 100 page book. My first 9 pages are each different with no page numbers until page 10. Ex: 2 blank pages, 1 presented to page, 1 cover page,1 ISBN page, 3 introduction pages, 1 dedication page. How do I start my first master page on page 10? Thank you.
Thanks mester terry for this tuto... Iam always learning from u many things.. I sugest to u next stream to talk about GREP in find and change i feel hard to understand... Please teacher terry
Hi- Quick question, working on a book in InDesign. I unlocked text boxes in pages 6-7 in order to insert content. These pages were taking on Parent Page A settings (fonts, etc). When I later made changes to Parent Page A (font size, etc) -- pages 6-7 where I had unlocked text to insert content earlier---did not take on the new changes made in Parent Page A. If I "apply parent to ___" page, the parent overrides the content that I had placed inside the text boxes of pages 6-7. Should I have done something differently? I also tried repeating this proess and locking (CTRL + L) the text boxes in pages 6-7 after inserting content into them, then making changes to Parent Page A, but nothing worked. Would love some guidance. Thanks so much.
Wow! This is helpful! I am curious, I am working on it with the master page, one of my professors did give me misinformation with all one pages from the master page, I am struggling with how to use master pages can edit inside of Master Pages, not the original pages supposed to be two pages all the way. How do you can demonstrate to me that master pages can edit inside for copy and paste perfectly with two pages, not one page? How do you can explain how to make a difference between the two pages and one page from the master pages of Adobe Indesign?
Thank you so much! I have just started watching your teaching videos. You explain things very clearly and I appreciate that! I am trying to set up a fixed-format ebook because it's not working in the free flow format. Many of my pages have two graphics and a text description using different fonts for different parts of the description. Can I set up a master page or pages so that all those pages will have a set location for the graphics and a set format for the description? I don't want to 'eyeball' it.
Love your videos Terry, but I have a quick question. Is there a way to change the appearance color of a text button in Epub documents? I can't find an answer online and thought you may be able to help!
hello Terry! Thank you for amazing video! I would like to ask you what to do, if my "master page" text frames are frozen even they are unlocked, and are not applicable to my ordinary pages (dotted frame appearance, to paste any text is not possible)... if you knew what to do I would be happy :-)
I am writing a cookbook in InDesign. I'd like to use a master page for each of my recipe formats. This works for the most part. When I click on a blank page, I can Ctrl-Shift to unlock the text frames and enter the recipe information. However, as I get more recipes, I need to "insert" pages into the middle of the cookbook. When I do that, it pushes the pages to the right and I get the original recipe text frames overlapping new text frames. I originally had default text in each text box such as "Title," "Ingredients," and "Directions" so the recipe information now sits on top of that text on new pages. Should I just delete the default text and let it have two overlapping text frames since I can't see them when printed? Or am I using master pages incorrectly? I saw a cookbook tutorial and they just copy and pasted the text frames on new document pages, but I want the ability to change the shape, size, and location of the text frames globally in the future. Thank you.
Hi Terry, Thank you for making such wonderful content. It is really helpful for me especially. Actually, I have a question. Is it possible to export master page content in reflowable EPUB3 ?? I want some background effects on each page so I designed them on the master page and apply to all pages but when I exporting a reflowable EPUB3 master page items do not export on EPUB 😢😢😢
thanks for your informative tutorial. i have a question. in designing 2-sided books, is it possible to apply a 2-page master page to a single page? i mean, is it possible for the software to automatically decide which page of the master page (odd or even one) should be applied to our target page? if not, is there an efficient way to do that?
Say you have different page masters with different text layouts-is there a way to change pages (that have existing text) from one master to another and have the text layout change?
Is it possible to remove items applied with master pages on SOME pages you are working on but keeping the rest? I put an image on a document via master pages, but certain pages I do not want the image.... how can I delete the image and not do all of them manually
I just finished a new Master Page for my book. I did everything - I hope, correctly - to create my new Master Page. But I don't know how or where to save it and I can't leave this page. I'm stuck with my new Master Page. How can I be free?
Hi Terry, I am new to InDesign (ID) and really like going through your training. I am in the process of editing a novel. I have a couple of questions.... 1. I have broken up the manuscript into chapters and plan to drag and drop the doc file into an ID chapter file and then compile the ID files into a single ID file. my question is, is there a way to find/replace text with picture or clipart? For example: I have ### have a place holder to show a scene change or topic and want to replace it with a picture or some thing else to show the change. what are your thoughts? 2. Any suggestions that you or anyone else on possible training you have done that would be good for this newbee would be great. Thank you for your help
When I moved table ms word to InDesign , for large contain of writing some table automatically shift to next page, and doesn't move to first pages, as a result there is a hug gap/space on first page, can u please give me some solutions..... trying from last 3 days, but I can't solve this.....help please....
Thanks. I was curious if there was a way to ad "MASTER-B" in-between "MASTER-A". Master-A is the front of a postcard (with Variable Data Printing) and the back is a background with no VDP. I have over 700 postcards, so I was hoping there was a quick way to "insert Master-B" in-between "Master-A"

I am having a with with my book on KDP Amazon. Do I have to fill the empty pages? Before compiling the book on Indesign?
Thanks for lesson

Great tutorial for a beginner like myself! I totally get master pages now. Thank you. P.S. Have you done one on Table of Contents ?
thanks for your informative tutorial. i have a question. in designing 2-sided books, is it possible to apply a 2-page master page to a single page? i mean, is it possible for the software to automatically decide which page of the master page (odd or even one) should be applied to our target page? if not, is there an efficient way to do that?

2. Any suggestions that you or anyone else on possible training you have done that would be good for this newbee would be great.
Thank you for your help
Say you have a subtitle that changes, can that text be edited in the pages?
hey where are we could find the In-design new tutorial? you haven't done
any new episode recently? why? it has been for more than a month
How to change all content at once using master pages is that possible..?
How do I eliminate the header from appearing on the first two pages in the master?
Can you take a master page and export it so that you can use it for a new document? Would it be possible to add it to the library?
Create the master page and save the InDesign document as a Template to use over and over again.
When I moved table ms word to InDesign , for large contain of writing some table automatically shift to next page, and doesn't move to first pages, as a result there is a hug gap/space on first page, can u please give me some solutions..... trying from last 3 days, but I can't solve this.....help please....
Terry - can You tel me how to put text frame with the chapter name on a master so the chapter name will change on pages depending on what page it is?
Szymon Kaczmarek research the Variable Text features/options.
Hi Terry. :)
19:00 Taking the number off the first page
Is there any way to ad a "master page b" in-between all other pages on spread?
Drag the B page onto whatever page(s) you want to apply it to in the Pages panel.
Thanks. I was curious if there was a way to ad "MASTER-B" in-between "MASTER-A". Master-A is the front of a postcard (with Variable Data Printing) and the back is a background with no VDP. I have over 700 postcards, so I was hoping there was a quick way to "insert Master-B" in-between "Master-A"
Spreads?
