      I have an XML document consisting of the following:

      <root>
      <pages>
      <page>
      <title>test</title>
      </page>
      <page>
      <title>test2</title>
      </page>
      ….
      </pages>
      </root>

      I want to import this into a new Indesign document and have each page node printed in a new page in indesign. How do I do this? I tried creating a new document and importing the XML, which creates the tags and structure. However, when I drag and drop the pages tag from the Structure, it puts all of them on a single page?

      You would probably need to set the “new page” as a formatting attribute (Start on New Page) of the paragraph style applied to the title. To add additional pages automatically, you may want to use the Smart Text Reflow feature.
