Default scroll bar incorrectly lumps multiple page numbers together

In Word 2007, there is a 36-page document. The first 10 pages of the document
show on the scroll bar as page 2. The 11th page shows page 3, 12th page shows
page 4, etc. Therefore, if you wish to print page 11, you have to print page
3 for that output. Any suggestions?

maybe the most simple explanation is that all is well: somebody has
isolated the first 10 pages in separate sections and told Word that in
fact each section starts the numbering with "2."

if you are on the fith page and insert Word field braces (CTRL-F9) and
enter PAGE, then F9 (to update the field), what does it show?
