Problem with Page number in status bar
The status bar in a document says:
Page 2 SEC 1 1/3 I am at the very top of the document as you can tell by 1/3 but it is saying page 2. When I insert page numbers it classifies page 1 as 2, 2 as 3 etc. I gather it is pulling that from the Page 2. How can I reset so that the status bar will indicate I am on Page 1 Sec 1 1/3 and the page numbers will print correctly? |

Problem with Page number in status bar
On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Format Page Number and set it to
"Continue from previous section." Also, make sure that the section start type is not Even Page (Layout tab of Page Setup). -- Suzanne S.
