Page numbering a Word document
I have a novel containing three sections. The title page, the prologue and
misc. pages and the main body of the novel. I use the View header and footer to number the main pages 1,2,3,etc. and then the misc. pages with i,ii,iii,iv, etc. Finally, I used page layout to remove page numbers from the title page. What then occurs is that the misc. pages begin numbering at ii, instead of i. Page numbering help in Miscrosoft Word Help is frustrating to use. Would appreciate any help, as I have to get this document formatted before I can submit to publish. Thanks. |

Page numbering a Word document
See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm for help.
But note that the title page (if it is the first page) *should* be page i, even though no number is printed on it. By convention, every page in a book is numbered, usually starting with the title page (or half-title if there is one) as i or 1 (depending on whether front matter is numbered separately). -- Suzanne S.
