Page designed vertically, for print (left); page orientation changed for on-screen viewing, with layout automatically refitted by the Layout
Adjustment feature (right)
You can modify the rules in the Layout Adjustment dialog box. The Layout Adjustment feature attempts to approx-
imate the proportions of the old layout in the new layout by doing the following:
• Repositioning margin guides while maintaining margin widths, if the page size changes moving column and ruler
guides to maintain proportional distances from page edges, margins, or column guides.
• Adding or removing column guides, if the new layout specifies a different number of columns.
• Moving objects already aligned to any margin, column, or ruler guide, or to any two guides perpendicular to each
other, so that the objects stay with those guides if the guides move during layout adjustment.
• Proportionally resizing objects already aligned to two parallel margin, column, or ruler guides or to guides on
three sides, so that the objects stay with those guides if the guides move during layout adjustment.
• Maintain the relative position of objects that are anchored to the text as specified in the Anchored Object Options
dialog box.
• Moving objects to keep them in the same relative position on the page, if the page size changes.
Note: Layout Adjustment affects columns inside a text frame differently than it does page columns. If the frame itself is
resized by Layout Adjustment and the Fixed Column Width is not selected in the Object > Text Frame Options dialog
box, text frame columns are resized proportionally. If the Fixed Column Width option is selected, columns are added or
removed as necessary.
Set options for layout adjustment
Note that changing options in the Layout Adjustment dialog box does not immediately change anything. Layout
adjustment is triggered only by changes to page size, page orientation, margins, or column settings, or when a new
master is applied. When you want to restore a layout to its previous state, you must undo the action that triggered
the layout adjustment.
1 Choose Layout > Layout Adjustment.
2 Select Enable Layout Adjustment.
3 Specify the layout adjustment options, and click OK.
Layout Adjustment options
Enable Layout Adjustment Select this option so that layout adjustment will occur whenever you change page size,
page orientation, margins, or columns.
Snap Zone Type a value to specify how near an object must be to the closest margin guide, column guide, or page
edge to snap to that element during layout adjustment.
Allow Graphics And Groups To Resize Select this option to let the Layout Adjustment feature scale graphics, frames,
and groups. When deselected, graphics and groups can be moved by Layout Adjustment, but not resized.
Dear manymanuals.pl Admin! my name’s Eric and for just a second, imagine this… - Someone does a search and winds up at manymanuals.pl. - They hang out for a minute to check it out. I’m interested… but… maybe… - And then they hit the back button and check out the other search results instead. - Bottom line – you got an eyeball, but nothing else to show for it. - There they go. This isn’t really your fault – it happens a LOT – studies show 7 out of 10 visitors to any site disap
Dear, Eric here with a quick thought about your website manymanuals.pl Owner! I’m on the internet a lot and I look at a lot of business websites. Like yours, many of them have great content. But all too often, they come up short when it comes to engaging and connecting with anyone who visits. I get it – it’s hard. Studies show 7 out of 10 people who land on a site, abandon it in moments without leaving even a trace. You got the eyeball, but nothing else. Here’s a solution for y
