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? |

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

setting margins for page numbers
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. "Suzanne S.

setting margins for page numbers
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. -- Suzanne S.

setting margins for page numbers
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. "Suzanne S.

setting margins for page numbers
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.

setting margins for page numbers
Okay I've even searched for header footer margin and I only get a hit on
gutter margin. My document is a dissertation so throughout the document I have different page numbers in different places, roman, then regular. Thus, I didn't just "insert page number" in the document. The format check said that my numbers were not 1" from the bottom of the page thus my delimma. BTW I'm working with Word 2000 if that makes any difference. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: The footer margin will determine that.
