I have inserted the Page Number in a Footer in a standard Word Document.
Initially in the "Print Layout" option of the "View" menu, the page number
appear fine. I do a "Print Preview" and they appear as { PAGE }. I press
ALT + F9 while in the Print Preview, and the { PAGE } is converted to the
actual and correct page numbers on each page. If I print from the Print
Preview, the printing is converted back to the { PAGE } variable, and no page
numbers print. If I print from the regular Print Layout page, after pressing
ALT + F9 in the Print Preview screen, the same thing happens, even though the
page number appear correctly on the screen. If I press ALT + F9 while in
Print Preview, then get out of Print Preview (back to Print Layout), and
immediately go back to Print Preview, the page numbers are all reset to {
PAGE}. What do I have to do to get the actual page numbers to display, and
most importantly print, rather than { PAGE } on the document? Thinking about
WordPefect a lot lately. Thank you for your kind consideration in responding
to my inquiry.
