This is what we'll create in this episode: an automatic running header that displays the chapter title at the top of the page, different for each chapter, using a section marker. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe InDesign series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. A running header is text at the top of the page that changes according to the chapter. InDesign can automatically create it using a section marker placed in the print page. Open the book file and double-click apparent.
On the right print page, create a text frame above marine for the header. The header on the right page usually contains the chapter title.
With the cursor in the frame, select Type > Insert Special Character > Markers > Section Marker. In the print, the word 'section' appears, which is where the marker text will be displayed.
Return to the content page. Double-click the first chapter's starting page, open Layout > Numbering and Section Options, check Start Section, then fill the section marker with 'Pesona Nusantara'. Click OK. Do the same thing on the second chapter's starting page using the section marker 'Kopi dari Tanah Air'. Leave the page numbering to continue so the sequence remains consistent.
Double-click the page in the first chapter, the top header displays 'Pesona Nusantara'. Switch to the second chapter's page, the top header changes to 'Kopi dari Tanah Air'. Everything is automatically generated from one frame in the print. For the left page, place the book title as static text, so readers always know the book title on the left and the chapter title on the right, like professional books usually do.
Done. We have inserted a section marker in the print, filled the text for each section, and created an automatic running header that changes for each chapter. In the next episode, we will apply the print to multiple pages and set up pages without print. Need a magazine layout, book, brochure, product catalog, company profile, or annual report design?
