Page numbers in booklet
Is there anyway to make the page numbers start on the 3rd page instead of
the default choice of "different first page" option? I need a blank page, then the title page, then Page 1 so that it flows correctly after putting the back and front cover pages on it. using word 2007 is a real pain .. I've had to save the booklet to a word 2003 doc just to be able to get it to print correctly!!!! any help appreciated! |

You'll need a section break between pages 2 and 3, then use Format Page
Number to start the Section 2 page numbering to start at 1. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Pam" zionnow @ hotmail.com wrote in message ...

No it isn't. Click on Insert Breaks on the Page Layout ribbon.
However, it isn't necessary. Instead of inserting a plain Page Number field in the footer, insert the following field which uses the IF field to determine if the page is greater than Page 2 and then subtracts 2 from the page number. So on Page 3, it will determine that the page is greater than page 2, and then calculate the page as 3-2=1 displaying Page 1; on Page 4 it will again determine that the page is greater than page 2 and calculate 4-2=2... -- Terry Farrell - MSWord MVP "Pam" zionnow @ hotmail.com wrote in message ... is Page break and section break the same thing?

Or if this is 2003 as Pam implied, it's Insert | Break | Section Break: Next
