You can split the data of 1 assigned page into 2 pages. This is useful when data for a 2-page spread is created on 1 page.
Once a page is split, it cannot be returned to its condition before splitting. To return the page to its condition before splitting, delete the split pages and assign the page again.
The page is split at the centre with equal left and right parts. The splitting position cannot be set.
