Use the popup at the bottom of the document to switch between Master and Pages layers.
| While the Master Layer allows you to set up a template for column placement that will be used automatically on every page in your document, you are allowed to move or resize the actual columns that are created on the Pages Layer based on this template. PasteUp assumes, however, that you will not want to move or resize these text items, so they are locked when they are placed on the Pages Layer. You can still add text to them, but to move or resize them you must unlock them first.

|
| Columns that are placed on the Pages Layer because of a Master Layer template behave exactly as if they were native to the Pages Layer. They differ, however, in that they inherit any changes made to their Master Layer template. If you switch to the Master Layer and resize a column, the Pages Layer columns (and their links) snap to the revised specification, even if the column is locked on the Pages Layer.

|
| If you've modified a Master Layer column on the Pages Layer and you want to preserve the changes, turn off the Conform to Master attribute of the column by clicking the check box on the Size & Placement Inspector panel. When Conform to Master is turned off, the column will not be affected by changes made to its Master Layer template.

| The Master Layer is usually dimmed when you're working on the Pages Layer. If you make a change to a Master Layer column on the Pages Layer, you'll still see an outline of the original column in the background. If you don't want to see the outlines of the original columns, you can make the Master Layer invisible using the Others Hidden option from the pop-up list at the bottom of the document window.
