Layout Parts (Prof. Mary Brown)
A) text page – the area on a page, within the margins, where text appears.
B) margin – the area of the page around the text area.
C) folios – the page number. In most instances this is at the bottom of the page below or outside the text area.
D) header – the area at the top of the page, outside the text area. A running header is a header that is repeated across many pages
E) footer – the area at the bottom of the page, outside the text area. A running footer is a footer that is repeated across many pages.
F) gutter – the gutter separates the columns and rows from each other. It is also the area where two facing pages meet.
