Thanks for the great tut. I am using InD CS5. I did exactly as what you dis but surprisingly I did not see what I created on the second page (A-master page) replicated in the other pages. I don't know if it's the problem of the version, or I have to make some adjustment to make it work like yours.

@phuonghhnt I haven' t tried it in cs5 yet, so I'm not sure.

Hey, great tutorials! just wondering if you wanted to increase the no. of pages for this booklet from 12 to say 20, how do you do that? Thanx a mill!

[sterlingteaches]

@parisgala88 Many ways to change the page numbers... 1 way is to go up to file then click on Document Setup then change where it says number of pages to 20.

thank you sir. You saved my day with this tutorial. We had to make a portfolio for an architectural project and without Indesign and your tutorial it wouldn't have been completed (still worked three days with little sleep offcourse ;).
