Re-section 157-Page Apple Document

My 157-page manuscript was built in Apple Pages with “Document Body” enabled, so the whole book is locked into a single continuous section. I now need full freedom to shuffle pages around and, when the time comes, delete the ones that no longer serve the story.

Here’s the job in plain terms: open the .pages file, turn OFF the single body, and convert every individual page into its own section. I want to keep the exact same header and footer throughout, so there’s no need to design unique running heads—consistency is fine. At this stage I am not asking you to cut pages; I simply want the structural groundwork laid so I can reorder or remove pages myself later.

You’ll need an up-to-date copy of Apple Pages and hands-on experience with its section tools. Once done, please return a clean .pages file in which each page can be dragged independently in the page thumbnail pane without affecting the others, and where all headers and footers remain identical from page 1 through 157.

Deliverable:
• Revised .pages file with one section per page, uniform headers/footers intact, ready for manual reordering or deletion.
