How to set auto number assigned pages

When you create documents in Microsoft Word 2010, the user might want to add a header and footer that contains individual information about the document or the page number.

Instruction

To enable pagination, open a text document, activate the Insert tab in the top menu.

In the "header and Footer" click once with the left mouse button on the line "page Number" and select the location of the page number. This opens the design tab, in the section "Working with headers", which displays the basic settings headers, footers, and page numbers.

On the opened tab click the "page Number" located on the left, and select "Format page numbers...". A window will open with the numbering settings in which the user can choose the type of page numbers, include the numbering of the individual sections of the document and define the start page number. Select the desired options and click OK.

To change the numbering format you can also select a text page number and by clicking the right mouse button, choose the line "Edit field...". In the opened window, in the "field Properties" select the format page numbers and click OK.

If necessary, select special settings for page numbering by clicking "Settings" on the tab "Designer". In the list that appears you can select "Special footer for the first page" (for example, when the document cover sheet)or "Different headers and footers for even and odd pages" (for example, when you turn on duplex printing of the document).

After all, the page number options are set, click "Close window headers" from the right side of the Designer tab.

Note

When you create headers and footers with page numbers Microsoft Word 2010, by default, includes automatic numbering. To change the individual pages by clicking twice with the left mouse button on the header and footer, i.e. by opening the design tab.

Useful advice

To cancel the page numbering, click the "Designer" block "Working with headers", by double-clicking the left button of the mouse on the top or bottom of any page of the document. On the resulting tab, click "page Number" and select the line "Remove page numbers". Also the page number can be registered in the header or footer, and to remove it click the "header" and select the line "Remove header". Do the same for footer.
