Inserting/Printing page numbers X of Y in footer
In the footer I used "Insert Auto Text" and clicked on X of Y. When I email
to a client the view on screen is correct as Page 1 of 5, 2 of 5 etc. but when the client sends to print, it prints as Page 1 of 1, 2 of 2 etc. I sent 4 documents - one works correctly the other 3 are incorrect. I deleted all footers and reinserted - didn't work. I copied the footer from the one that was working and inserted into one that wasn't working - didn't work. Any suggestions please? |

The problem is with your client's system rather than your document.
There is a bug in Word that is different in different versions (including different SRs). See http://www.addbalance.com/word/pagexofy.htm or http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/AppErrors/PageXofY.htm for information on Page X of Y problems. You may also want to take a look at: http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Number...eNumbering.htm. If it applies you may also want to look at http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumber0.htm. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
