Default Page numbers

On MS Word 2003, I am formatting a 5.5 x 8.5 book.
How can I get the page numbers to come in at 7.75?
I tried bringing the bottom 'margin' up to 8.5, but
the numbers still come in at 10.5 on the 11" vertical page.
Actually I've tried a lot of things!
Footers also seem to want to hit the bottom 1/2 or inch of the 11
available.

How to number so that they show within the 8.5 space on a 'sheet'?.

Susanne, sideways isn't an option, because I may go for a 6 x 9 format.

TIA!

Sylvia M.

Default Page numbers

You must change your footer margin as well as the bottom margin.
