Alternating Page Numbers
I have a number of multi-page documents I want to put in a 3-ring binder.
I'm using Mirror Margins to give me space to punch the holes. I also want to alternate the page numbers in the header so that they're always on the outside of the page: odd pages on the far right of the header, even pages on the far left of the header. I could do this in Word 98, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in Word 2007. HELP! |

I could do this in Word 98, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in Word 2007. HELP! When the cursor is in the header area, the Header & Footer Tools tab appears on the ribbon. In that tab, in the Options group, check "Different Odd & Even Pages". The blue tag attached to the bottom of the header area changes to "Odd Page Header". Insert a page number at the right, either by selecting one of the right-aligned numbers from the Page Number Top of Page gallery, or by pressing the Tab key twice to get to the right margin and then choosing a number from Page Number Current Position. (You may have to reapply the Header style to the header, as the gallery entries have a nasty habit of applying unwanted Normal style.) Now click the Next Section button in the Navigation group to get to the Even Page Header (note that you must have at least two pages already to see this), and insert a page number at the left margin there. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |
