Re: Word 2003 Pagination

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Thank you Suzanne,
I have gone through and deleted all 132 page number frames. And I have the
Header and Footer toolbar onscreen. When I click Insert Page Number, I see
a page number inserted into the footer, left justified. If I want it to be
centered I can press ^E and it will move over. However, I do not see any
page numbers in any of the other footers in the document. How can I get
page numbers throughout the document (and preferably have them centered)?
Thank you again in advance.

When you use the Insert | Page Numbers command, the page number is
inserted in a frame. Every time you use this command, another frame is
inserted. Which is why using the Insert Page Number command on the Header
and Footer toolbar is recommended. I'm afraid you'll have to go through
the footers one by one and delete the frames one by one. For more on this,
see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/UnaccountablyIndented.htm

Thank you Suzanne. That helped a lot. With that instruction I was able
to add a page number to the footer and to put it nice an low on the page.
However, there still exists another page number about an inch higher. If
I double click this other page number and then click it once more, it
appears to be in a text box (about 6 inches across) in the lower part of
each page. If I click the gray box around the page number the black boxes
used to size it appear. If I then press delete, the box and the number
disappear. Is there a way to get all of these boxes to disappear at
once, so that only the page numbers that I put low in the footer (like
you instructed me) remain?
Thanks again.
Bob

Reduce the footer margin to something less than the bottom margin.

I am sorry. I gave the wrong impression. I meant that on a number of
pages, there area several sentances which I need to keep found below the
page numbers.

Delete the empty paragraphs below the page numbers.

I have a Word document given to me which has the page numbers too high
on the page. In fact in some cases there are actually some lines
below the page numbers. The page numbers are in the middle at the
bottom of the page. Can someone tell me how to move the page numbers
down as low as possible on the page? Thank you in advance.
Bob
