Turn pages

InDesign makes it easy to jump from page to page in a document. For example, just as most web browsers provide
Back and Forward buttons to navigate through pages you’ve visited, InDesign keeps track of the order in which
you’ve viewed pages in a document.

Do any of the following:

To move through pages in the order in which you viewed them during the current session, choose Layout > Go
Back or Go Forward.

To go to the next or previous page, click the Next Page button or Previous Page button at the bottom of
the document window, or choose Layout > Next Page or Previous Page.
