This Page Set
Indicates that this part of the page name is the same as the
name of the page set or page set prefix to which the page will
be assigned.
For example if you enter .p1.pdf, a matching wild card ( ) is
inserted in the Page Set Name/Prefix column. Book.p1.pdf
would be assigned to the Book page set.
All Page Sets

About rules for APA
●
Page assignment and geometry assignment instructions are
independent. You can use either or both in an APA file.
●
In each page assignment instruction, you can use either the page set
name or the page set prefix name.
●
To express page names, you can either specify them explicitly or
use wild cards and pattern matching. For example:
Refined file name Explanation
Front.p1.pdf
Names the page explicitly.
.p2.pdf
wild card matches letters in the page name.
.p .pdf
wild card matches letters, then wild card matches
numbers in the page name.
.p .pdf
wild card matches either letters or numbers.
wild card matches the page number and uses it as a
back reference to the page position.
●
To assign a page to the same position in every page set use a wild
card for the page set name/prefix. For example:
Refined file name Page set name/
prefix
Position
Layer
Book.p1.pdf
1
1
●
To make a back reference to the page set name page set prefix,
position number, or layer number, use a pattern in the page name.
For example:
Refined file name Page set name/prefix Position
Layer
.p1.pdf
1
1
Page.p .pdf
pageset1
1
●
To indicate page position use simple addition and subtraction
expressions. For example:
392
