need help with page numbering.
Someone help me!!!!
I'm formatting a book in word. It has a title page, which shouldn't have a page number or a header or footer. Then it has pages of front matter (acknowledgments, preface, table of content etc) that I want to number in roman numerals at the bottom centre. Then Chapter 1 begins and is numbered book style with the author and page number on the left page and the book title and page number on the right page. I need the page numbering to start 1,2,3 etc from the beginning of chapter 1 through to the end. The real diffficulty is that the footnote reference numbers have to start afresh from 1 at the beginning of each chapter so each chapter is a new section break. I've racked my brains but am stuck. Any advice would be greatly greatly recieved. Many thanks guys WjPrince |

You seem to be using Section Breaks, so hopefully all you need to do, is when
inserting the footnotes, see the Format | Numbering part of the dialog box, and select Restart each section. Does this work for you? -- Rae Drysdale "WjPrince" wrote: Someone help me!!!!

need help with page numbering.
but because I'm using section breaks so the footnotes will restart I can't
just split to page number formats into two different sections. Usually I'd just separate the front matter and the body of the book so the numbering can be different. But each chapter is a new section break. After the front matter I want to numbering to run through all the other breaks continuously.

If you are using section breaks for the footnotes, can you place your page
numbers in a page footer? By deselecting the same as previous icon on the headers and footers toolbar. You can format your page numbers to start at a particular number i.e. section 1 finishes at page 34, but section 2 then starts from page 35.

When inserting page numbers are you checking to continue from previous
section? -- Rae Drysdale "WjPrince" wrote: but because I'm using section breaks so the footnotes will restart I can't just split to page number formats into two different sections.

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm. Note that
page numbering should be set to "Continue from previous section" for every section after the one that begins with page 1. -- Suzanne S.
