This is my story Addendum to Headers Footers and Physical page 1 – the The ruler has a right tab set for the position of the page number, but as instructed, there is no number on this page. The open Header shows this as First Page Header – 1.

This is physical page 1, the title page, showing the ruler, the open Header and the Header and Footer Toolbar. The formatting is correct in that there is no page 1 shown at the right tab position in the Header. Page numbering formatting was told not to put a number on page 1. The Header and Footer toolbar shows the Same as Previous icon button is also greyed-out.

Also a Section Break (Next Page) has to be inserted at the end of page 1 in order to format physical page 2 with no number 2.

To insert a Section Break click on the Insert menu command, then click on Break and in the pop-up dialog box for Break choose a Next Page Section Break.

This is my story Addendum to Headers Footers and Page Numbering This is physical page 2 – the Acknowledgement/ page.

This is now First Page Header –Section 2-.

This is physical page 2, the Dedication page, showing the ruler, the open Header and the Header and Footer Toolbar. Again the formatting is correct in that there is no page 2 shown at right-tab position in the Header. In the Header and Footer toolbar the Same as Previous icon button is depressed. Also because the Header is open you can see outside the Header margin on the right hand side the fact that it is the Same as Previous. Page numbering formatting was told not to put a number on page 1 and that instruction was followed.

You will see that another Section Break (Next Page) is at the bottom of this page.

Here I will digress to talk about a very useful tool and that is the Show/Hide too. When this utility is turned on then you can see symbols representing certain keystrokes, such as the enter key pressed to add a new line or paragraph. It is represented by a backwards P. When the codes are shown then you can see the Section Break hopefully inserted where you want it at the bottom of the page. These codes are very important to see when formatting your document so that you can see if the program is doing the things you have instructed it to do.

If it is on your Standard Toolbar then this is what it looks like. This one is turned on because you can see the icon depressed.

This is the standard toolbar and on it you want the icon for the Show/Hide codes.

If the Standard Toolbar is not shown then you have to activate it by clicking on View on the Menu Toolbar above, select Toolbars and click on Standard, which will then put a check mark beside it in the lost of toolbars.

See the next page for the screen capture illustrating this.

This is my story 2 On the Menu Toolbar click on View. Let the menu drop down so that you can see Toolbars and then hold on it until the next menu pops out and in it click on Standard. This will activate the Standard Toolbar at the top of your program and most likely below your Menu Toolbar. The other very important Toolbar to have active is the Formatting Toolbar, which you can see in this illustration already has a check mark in front of it.

This is still the physical page 3 – the first page of 1 but indicated as page 2 for publishing purposes.

Here again this physical page 3 in the open Header is called First Page Header –Section 3- and now has page number 2 at the right-tab position. This is what we want in order to follow specific requirements to that effect.

Also now on the Header and Footer toolbar the icon button for Same as Previous is not depressed therefore not in effect or not being used and not showing at the right margin of the Header. The previous page had no number so we don’t want that instruction to continue to this page.

At the bottom of physical page 3 or chapter 1 page 2 a Section Break (Continuous) wais inserted so that the numbering would continue in sequence to the next pages added. This instruction was followed and the next physical page 4, which is page 3 of Chapter 1 is numbered 3.

This is my story 3 This is physical page 4 – the second page of chapter 1 but numbered now in sequence as page 3.

Now this has changed to Header –Section 4-.

Now the Same as Previous icon is active and that fact shows up at the right hand end of the Header.

The last Section Break was inserted at the bottom of physical page 3. The instructions are still being followed on physical page 4 and the subsequent physical page 5 and we don’t need to place another Section Break at the bottom of this page or any more pages.

This is my story 4 This is physical page 5 – the third page of Chapter 1 but numbered now in sequence as page 4.

The Header, and this page, is still part of Section 4.

As it should be, this page is the same as the previous and the icon is depressed and the instruction is shown at the end of the Header.

So the page numbering is continuing in sequence, as we wanted it to.

Obviously the above is a bit complicated, so I suggest you take a look at a simpler way outlined in the pagenumberingscenario1 and 2 documents. There will be a link to them from the Tutorial.
