1. Standard layout creation: page number setting, margin center setting, page number type setting and font setting 2. Header settings, footnote format 3. Layout of illustrations and inserts.

Book typesetting is based on pages. Each page consists of words, charts, etc. According to the unified technical specifications, they have different sizes.

The same book, regardless of its format and content, must be unified in font size, length and line spacing. , so as to maintain the basic consistency of the version.

Mainly deal with the relationship between title, page number, text, notes and charts, so as to make the layout clear, coordinated, beautiful and readable.

Science and technology books and textbooks in colleges and universities mostly adopt 16 format, which often contains more formulas, charts and other contents, and the layout is small, it is difficult to typeset, and there are many pages, so 16 format is more suitable.

Magazines and periodicals have more layouts than books, with multiple columns (from double columns to four columns), flexible font size and larger editing centers than books.

In order to facilitate printing and machine binding, most pages are numbers divisible by 16, such as 32, 48 and 64, and a simple "saddle stitch" is adopted.
