new features. For more details, see the Adobe PageMaker 7.0 At A Glance or the Adobe PageMaker 7.0 NewFeature
Highlights , available for download at .

Q. What is the difference between the Educational and Retail versions of Adobe PageMaker 7.0?
A. The EULA for the Educational version stipulates that it may be used only by an Educational End User (for
educational purposes). Educational versions of Adobe software include all of the same features as retail versions.
However, they may not include the same extras that a retail version has, such as free fonts or clip artor they
may include different extras. In addition, educational products are available at a discount, and so do not
qualify for additional special pricing offered to retail customers. Educational versions of Adobe products are
available through Adobe Authorized Educational Resellers, including campus bookstores and mail order companies(Mac
and PC Connection, Mac and PC Zone, and Mac and PC Warehouse).
Q. Is Adobe PageMaker 7.0 carbonized?
A. Adobe supports the direction Apple is taking with Mac OS X. Apples new operating system promises to
deliver a powerful desktop platform with enhanced stability and reliability for the Macintosh customer.
Currently, most Adobe software products do not offer native Mac OS X support. We plan to support Mac
OS X native mode in future releases of our flagship products. PageMaker 7.0 is not a native application
because we were in the advanced stages of code development before Mac OS X became available. However,
PageMaker 7.0 will run successfully in Classic mode on Mac OS X.
Q. How does PageMaker differ from Adobe InDesign and Adobe FrameMaker, Adobes other page
layout products?
A. Adobe now offers three page layout programs to serve the needs of different customers. Adobe
PageMaker is for business and educational publishing, Adobe InDesign is for high-end design, and Adobe
FrameMaker is for publishing long technical documents that will be distributed through multiple channels.
Heres how PageMaker fits into Adobes page layout strategy

HOW TO CREATE A NEW DOCUMENT
There are two methods you can use to create a new document in PageMaker:
- Use a built-in PageMaker template
- Use the Document Setup dialog box
This tutorial focuses on the basics of creating a new document using the Document Setup
dialog box. A later tutorial in this series will demonstarte how to use PageMaker's built-in
templates.
CREATING A NEW DOCUMENT FROM SCRATCH
Click on the File menu, and select New... from the drop-down menu. This will open up
the Document Setup dialog box

USING THE DOCUMENT SETUP DIALOG BOX
The Document Setup dialog box enables you to customize your document design. It provides
a range of options that you can use to select your page size, specify the document's orientation,
print a double-sided document, rotate your document, enlarge or reduce your printout, as well
as adjusting the printable area. The sections below describe each of the options in the
Document set up box.

DOCUMENT SETUP OPTIONS


SETTING PAGE SIZE
PageMaker provides a number of standard page sizes that you can choose from. You
can customize a standard page size to fit your needs under Dimensions.
SETTING PAGE DIMENSIONS
The default page dimensions differ based on the Page Size that you select. For example,
the default for a Letter size paper is are 8.5"x11" while the default for an A4 size paper is
8.268"x 11.693"You can, however, adjust the dimensions of your selected paper size by
typing in new values into the two page dimension boxes.
PAGE ORIENTATION
Select your page orientation to be Tall or Wide.
SELECTING OPTIONS FOR SINGLE AND MULTIPLE PAGES
Your selections in the Options section will determine how PageMaker will handle a document
that has multiple pages.
SINGLE-SIDED
Select this option by un-checking the Double-sided box. The single-sided option creates a
publication that will print on only one side of each page. Only one master page will be created.
DOUBLE-SIDED
Select this option for a publication that will print on both sides of each page. The pages will still
be displayed one at a time on your screen. However, two master pages will be created.
FACING PAGES
Select this option to display two pages at a time on your screen (all except page 1, which is
typically displayed alone). This is the appropriate option if you are working on a booklet or
magazine, which will have their pages set up to face each other, much like a book's. You
cannot have facing pages unless they are double sided.

ADJUST LAYOUT
Select this option if you want to change your document's properties after it has been created.
The Adjust Layout option forces PageMaker to re-arrange your document to fit new settings.


NUMBER OF PAGES
Use this option to change the total number of pages that you want to have in your document.
Type the desired number into the Number of pages text box.Change the number of pages by
typing the appropriate number in the Number of pages text box.
RESTART PAGE NUMBERING
PageMaker will, by default, begin all numbered pages from page 1. Select the "Restart page
numbering" option if you are working with numbered pages, and want your document to start
with a page number other than 1. Check the Restart page numbering and then type the desired
starting number into the Start page# text box.
SETTING YOUR MARGINS
Select the margins for your document in this section. A margin refers to the space between your
text or image and the edge of your page. Margins are defined as Inside and Outside,
or Right and Left.
*When you set up your document for double-sided printing, your margins will be defined
as Inside and Outside. The Inside margin is in the inner side of the page, where the document
binding will be.
*When you set up your document for single-sided printing, your margins will be defined
as Right and Left.
Margin Options

Other Document Options
Target Output Resolution
Use this section to select the resolution for your final document. If you intend to print your
document, select the default resolution of 300 dpi.
Compose to Printer
Use this section to specify the printer that you will use to print the document. If your computer is
part of a network that has more than one printer, use the drop-down box to select the particular
one you want to print to. PageMaker uses your selection to determine the available fonts,
printable area and other settings.
Numbers
Click on the Numbers button to select the style of page numbers for your document. Click on
OK to save your selection.

from a word processor, such as Microsoft Word or WordPerfect, or you can use
PageMaker's Story Editor.
