Headers & Footers
Configure headers and footers for both left-hand (verso) and right-hand (recto) pages with complete control over positioning and content.
Page Areas
Each page has six areas where you can place elements:
You can configure different layouts for left pages (verso) and right pages (recto).
Page Elements
Drag these elements into the page areas above. You can drag and drop to rearrange them, and configure separately for left and right pages.
Custom Text with Tokens
Custom text lets you combine multiple elements in a single area using tokens:
| Token | Description |
|---|---|
{page-number} | Current page number |
{section-title} | Title of the current section (chapter, prologue, etc.) |
{section-subtitle} | Subtitle of the current section |
{author-name} | Author of the book |
{book-title} | Title of the book |
{part-title} | Title of the current book part (empty if section is not in a part) |
Example: To display your author name and page number in the top right separated by a dash, use custom text with: {author-name} - {page-number}
