Default setting margins for page numbers

I need my page numbers to appear within a 1 inch margin. My text is
appearing in this margin, but my page numbers are outside of it. Does anyone
know how to format the margins for where the page number will appear?

Default setting margins for page numbers

The placement of page numbers is determined by the header/footer margin.

Is this the same as the gutter margin? I don't see anywhere that I can
change the header/footer margin. I also read that I should just change my
bottom and side margins to increase .5" to accomodate this.

Have you tried looking in Word's Help? If you search for "header margin,"
the first hit is "Position headers and footers." The header and footer
margins are set on the Layout tab of Page Setup.

I see that, which is helpful for my page numbers when they appear in the
upper right hand corner. However, I'm not sure that it addresses the 1" that
I need at the bottom when the page numbers placed in the bottom center.

The footer margin will determine that. But changing the header and footer
margins will not change the location of existing page numbers inserted using
Insert | Page Numbers, which is just one reason not to use that feature. If
your page number is actually in the header or footer, it will be affected by
the change. To remove the existing page number frames, see
