applyMasterPage(page, master)
Applies a master page to the given page.
The page parameter can be given as a page object, as a page name or as a page number (numbering starts at 1).
The master parameter can be given as a master spread object or as a string. If a string is used, it can either hold the master page prefix (e.g “A”, “B”) or the full name including the prefix (e.g “A-Master”, “B-Master”). The latter is useful, if there are several masters using the same prefix. Alternatively, the constant NONE can be used to apply InDesign’s [none] master to the page and thus remove the previously applied master page from the page.
