• Chapter Number: Usually inserted into individual documents that are part of a Book file. When the Book file is synchronized, each chapter is given the correct number, based on its position in the book. • Creation Date: Based on the original creation date of the file. • File Name: Inserts the document's file name. • Last Page Number: Inserts the total number of pages, and updates if pages are added to or deleted from the file. • Modification Date: Inserts the most recent modification date of the document, including the date and time of day. The date is updated each time the document is saved. • Output Date: Inserts the most recent print or export date of the document. • Running Header (Character Style): Inserts text derived from the first or last instance of text using a specified character style on the page. Think of telephone books which show the first and last names at the top of each page. • Running Header (Paragraph Style): Inserts text derived from the first or last instance of text using a specified paragraph style on the page. • Custom Text: Available only when you select New in the Text Variables dialog, the Custom variable lets you assign any text to a "placeholder" variable. This can be useful for text or terminology that may change (such as a new product name). Note that text generated by a variable will not break or hyphenate. If you are required to make text edits in which variable text forces unwanted line breaks or text reflow, you may have to convert the variable text to plain text to accomplish desired text flow. Rotated Spread Viewing InDesign CS4 introduces the ability to rotate the working view of a spread by 90 degree increments The pages of the spread are viewed at the rotated angle, and can be worked on at that angle; text frames created while the spread is viewed in rotation take on the rotation of the spread. This can make it much easier to work on projects such as greeting cards and calendars. Note that spread rotation is only an altered view for convenience in working on rotated content; the pages do not actually change the document's setup. Pages print and export in their original orientation. Note that a single page within a spread cannot be rotated separately from the other pages in the spread. Rotate Spread View To facilitate working on layouts such as calendars, you can rotate the on screen view by 90 degree increments. Tools work in rotated fashion, as well. The file prints and exports in its original orientation, however. The rotation icon next to a spread in the Pages panel indicates that it has been rotated on screen To rotate a spread, choose a page or spread, select Rotate Spread View from the Pages panel menu, and choose a rotation value (90 degrees clockwise, 90 degrees counter-clockwise, or 180 degrees). To clear the rotation, choose Rotate Spread View from the Pages panel menu, and select the Clear Rotation option. Adobe Creative Suite 4 Printing Guide 32
