Page numbering, different for even / odd pages

Hi!


I can't get Pages 09 to do the following for me. It's a book design and I need the headline look like this:


odd pages: SomeHeader Text (centered) OddPageNumber (right aligned)


even pages: EvenPageNumer (left aligned) SomeHeaderText (centered)


I only get the page numbering left or right.


Is it possible to get what I need? If yes, please advise.


Thanks in advance,

M.

First you need to use the section tab of the layout inspector & check Left and right pages are different.

Second, use a center-aligned tab in both headers to center the text & a right-aligned tab in the even header to align the page number. If you weren't adding text you could just right-align the even header. I created a postcard-size page for this screenshot so you could easily see the two headers.
