Page Layout

Paged vs. Pageless
Revise can display your document as discrete pages - like a printed sheet with margins - or in a continuous, pageless flow with no page breaks. Pick whichever suits what you're writing: paged mode is ideal for documents headed for print or PDF, while pageless mode is great for notes and web content.
Page Layout Settings
Open Page Layout from the Layout menu to control how the page looks:
- Page size - Letter, A4, and other standard sizes.
- Orientation - portrait or landscape.
- Margins - set the top, bottom, left, and right margins.
You can also save your preferred layout as the default for new documents.
Headers & Footers
Every page has a header and footer band you can edit right on the page: double-click the top or bottom margin and start typing. Each band has three zones - left, center, and right - that grow and shrink to fit their content, and all the usual formatting works there: fonts, bold, colors, selection, undo. Press Tab to hop between zones, and click anywhere in the body to finish.
You can also edit both bands from Headers & Footers in the Layout menu, which additionally lets you give the first page its own header and footer (handy for title pages).
Page Numbers
Page numbers are header/footer content. Add one anywhere with Insert → Page # while editing a band, or type the tokens {PAGE} and {PAGES} in the Headers & Footers dialog for formats like "Page 3 of 12". The number updates live on every page.
The AI agent can set all of this up for you - try "put the document title in the header and page numbers bottom right".
