IBM Lotus Symphony


Alternating Page Styles on Odd and Even Pages

Lotus® Symphony™ can automatically apply alternating page styles on even (left) and odd pages (right) in your document. For example, you can use page styles to display different headers and footers on even and odd pages. The current page style is displayed in the Status Bar at the bottom of the workplace.
  1. Choose Layout - Style List, and then select Page Styles from the Style Type list.

  2. In the list of page styles, right-click "Left Page" and choose Modify.

  3. Click the Style tab.

  4. Select "Right Page" in the Next Style box, and then click OK.

  5. In the list of page styles, right-click "Right Page" and choose Modify.

  6. Select "Left Page" in the Next Style box, and then click OK.

  7. Go to the first page in your document, and double-click "Right Page" in the list of page styles in the Styles and Formatting window.

Tip Icon If you do not want to have a header or a footer on the title page of your document, apply the "First Page" style to the title page.

Suppressing printout of empty pages

If two even or two odd pages directly follow each other in your document, Lotus Symphony Documents inserts an empty page by default. You can suppress those automatically generated empty pages from printing and from exporting to PDF by doing the following steps:

  1. Choose File - Preferences - Symphony - Lotus Symphony Documents - Print.

  2. Remove the check mark from Print automatically inserted blank pages.
