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:

• Top left
• Top center
• Top right
• Bottom left
• Bottom center
• Bottom right

You can configure different layouts for left pages (verso) and right pages (recto).

Page Elements

Choose from five different elements to place in your headers and footers:

• Page number - Current page number
• Chapter title - Title of the current section (chapter, prologue, etc.)
• Author name - Author of the book
• Book title - Title of the book
• Custom text - Create custom combinations using tokens

Custom Text with Tokens

Custom text lets you combine multiple elements in a single area using tokens:

• {page-number} - Current page number
• {section-title} - Title of the current section
• {author-name} - Author of the book
• {book-title} - Title of the book

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}

Customize Header & Footer Fonts

Scroll to the bottom of the headers and footers settings to access advanced typography controls. You can set the font family and font size for both headers and footers independently.

Saving Changes

Headers and footers include a Save Changes button and visual indicator for unsaved changes. You must click Save to apply your layout to the book.

This design lets you organize multiple page elements without triggering preview re-renders. Arrange your layout, click Save, then review the changes in the print preview.

Reset returns all settings to their default values.
