Old Style Patents - Repeat words from next page
I'm reading some old (typed) patent applications and at the end of each page
- in the footer right aligned - that contain a slash / then the first few words from the following page: ie - end page 7: / above the start page 8: above the furnace bath, Obviously this could be done by hand but add a couple of words on page 2 and all the footers would be broken. Any suggestions on automation? Some pages have / TABLE 1 (underlined) and some just "/" where an image follows. |

Old Style Patents - Repeat words from next page
Hi Nick,
If you apply a character style (eg named 'RefStyle) to the first few words of each page, a STYLEREF field in the footer, coded as: {STYLEREF RefStyle \l} will pick those words up and add them to the footer of the page preceding those words. Obviously, though, you'd need your editing to be finished before doing this. Note, too, that a change in printer drivers could cause the character style to no longer be applied to the correct set of characters, due to Word's reliance on information from the driver to work out the document's pagination. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Nick Partridge" Nick wrote in message ...
