numbering on shorter pages
On MS Word 2003, I am formatting a 5.5 x 8.5 book.
How can I get the page numbers to come in at 7.75? I tried bringing the bottom 'margin' up to 8.5, but the numbers still come in at 10.5 on the 11" vertical page. Actually I've tried a lot of things! Footers also seem to want to hit the bottom 1/2 or inch of the 11 available. Landscape for 2 pages isn't an option, because I may go for a 6 x 9 format. How to number so that they show within the 8.5 space on a 'sheet'? TIA! Sylvia M. |

On the Layout tab of Page Setup, increase the footer margin.

Yesss!
Thank you! Can I make the numbering invisible on the blank pages inserted between some parts to make next part title on odd side? I want the numbering to be continuous and included, but just not be visible on those few pages. Sylvia M. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...

If you insert an Odd Page section break, Word will insert a totally blank
even page, which you will not even see unless you view "2 pages" in Print Preview. This blank page does not have a header or footer. The page will be counted in the numbering (Word will insist on it--you cannot start a section with an even number if you have an Odd Page section start). If you haven't already, you may want to look at http://daiya.mvps.org/bookword.htm, which addresses a number of issues involved in creating a book in Word; see also http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...rontMatter.htm. -- Suzanne S.
