Pagesmith provides several ways to modify how your document is presented. You can:
Some of these options use controls in the status bar to the right of the horizontal scroll bar. The status bar contains a mode button, a section button, a page number button, and a zoom button. In the picture below, the document is displaying page 1, Section 1 as a single page at 130% zoom:

To go to a specific page:
To zoom in and out:
You can also jump to the next higher or lower zoom level without using the popup menu in the status bar.
To jump to the next higher or lower zoom level:
The Zoom item in the Window menu performs the same function as the green button in the window’s title bar: it changes the size of the window. It does not zoom the window’s contents in and out. (We think “Toggle window size” would be a better name for the menu item, but we’ve followed the Apple guidelines and used the word “Zoom.”)
To add a second view to your document:
You can resize the views by dragging the divider between them. Each view has its own scroll bars and status bar. The two views can show different parts of your document and can have different zoom levels.
To remove the added view:
To show or hide guide lines around the layout areas:
Guidelines are drawn around columns, headers, footers, and table cells. Guidelines do not appear when the document is printed.
To show or hide guide lines around the printable area:
Pagesmith draws print guides using the printable area reported by the printer chosen in Page Setup.
