Layout View
In layout view you can see the outlines of the different text areas of your document,
including headers, footers, fixed text boxes, column widths, and the document
body
—
the main area of text in the document. With layout view turned on, document rulers
and
alignment guides
become visible.
To see layout view:
m
Choose View > Show Layout.
When you type in the document body, the text automatically flows onto the next
page. Other text areas, such as headers, footers, and text boxes, do not expand onto
subsequent pages; they remain a fixed size and width.
