NOTE:For the sake of brevity, we use an abbreviated style for menu commands
throughout this lesson. For example, "Select File > New" means "Select New from the
File menu."
FrameMaker documents are made up of three types of pages: body pages,
reference pages, and master pages. When you create a new document, these
pages are automatically created.
Reference pages and master pages contain reference material and page
layout information that is applied to the body pages. You can use master
pages to design custom page layouts for different elements within your
document, such as title pages, indexes, and tables of contents. For more
information about reference pages, see Reference Pages.
This section guides you through the steps required to create a master page. In
this exercise, you create a custom master page for a glossary.

cannot select or edit the text or graphics that you added to the master page.
You must modify this information from the master page.)
In this tutorial, you learned how to create a master page and add columns,
headers and footers, and graphics to the master page. Experiment by creating
your own master pages and applying them to the remaining body pages within
your document.
