Default How to lose the page number but keep the pleading lines and numbers on the caption page

Does anyone have a fix for this problem? When you use the Word wizard
to create legal pleading paper, and you check the box that says
"different first page" so that the page number doesn't appear on the
first page of your legal document, the pleading lines and numbers also
disappear. I need to have the lines and numbers that create the
pleading paper stay, but have the page number disappear on the first
page only (the caption page).

In the old days, before e-filing, you just used white out to make the
little 0 on the caption page disappear and then made a copy and that
became your original. Now, we have to distill the document in the
computer using OCR technology, not scan and send, for file size
considerations of the court, and so we can no longer use the cheater,
real-world method to get rid of the page number without losing the
pleading lines and numbers. I have been a legal secretary for 8+ years
and I haven't found a fix for this yet, so I will gratefully accept any
ideas on how to fix this or work around it.
