Select your name in the header text frame and press Delete.
Numbering pages
You’ll add the page number at the top of every page. This number will appear on the left
side of left-hand pages and on the right side of right-hand pages.
You make page numbers appear on the pages of your document by inserting a
page number
system variable
on the master pages. System variables are placeholders for
system information such as the page number, page count, date, and filename.
The paragraphs in the header and footer text frames are tagged Header and Footer. The
Header and Footer formats aren’t stored in the Paragraph Catalog because you usually
don’t need to apply these formats to any other paragraphs.
Note:
The asterisk in the status bar indicates that the Header paragraph format doesn’t
match a format in the catalog.
The paragraph format for the paragraph in the header text frame contains center-aligned
and right-aligned tab stops (shown in the top ruler).
Now you’ll change the font used in the header paragraph. The Header paragraph format
is used on the Left and Right master pages, so you can update both header paragraphs at
the same time.
1
Choose Format > Paragraphs > Designer to display the Paragraph Designer.
2
Choose Default Font from the Properties pop-up menu. (In Windows, you can just
click the Default Font tab at the top of the designer.)
