Left Page Applies the settings to the current left-hand page in a Publication with facing pages. Right Page Applies the settings to the current right-hand page in a Publication with facing pages. Section options You can also delete sections, fit sections to a page, or fit sections to the top half or bottom half of a page. Choose an option from the trian- gle pop-up menu. Delete Section Deletes the current section. If the Apply To setting refers to more than one section, this deletes all matching sections. Fit to Page Creates a full-page section. Fit to Top Half or Fit to Bottom Half Creates a half-page section on the top half or the bottom half of the specified pages. Preset column guides These buttons let you select a preset column guides arrangement. You can select 1, 2, or 3 columns of equal width, or 2 columns with a wider column on the left or right. Number of Columns This setting specifies the number of columns; it overrides the preset column guides. Type the number of columns. The maximum number you can set depends on the width of a section. Equal Widths This option makes the column widths equal to the value in the Column box, and makes the gutter widths equal to the value in the Gutter box. Deselect this option to set the width of a specific column. When Equal Widths is selected, you can’t set a specific column width (the Column box is not available), because the column width is based on the number of columns, the gutter width, and the section size. Fixed Widths This option prevents changes to the width of the sec- tion’s columns. If you use the Section tool to drag a column guide, the entire column moves, which changes the width of the gutters without changing the width of the column. Fixed Gutters This option prevents changes to the width of the col- umn gutters. If you use the Section tool to drag a column guide, the gutter moves, which changes the width of the adjacent columns with- out changing the width of the gutter.
