In word documents, page numbers are used to indicate the actual number of content pages in the document. Here's how to set up a page in a word document.
Add page numbers to each page of the document
Open the word document, click [Insert]-[Header and Footer 】-[Page Number], select "Page Number"-"Bottom of Page", select your favorite page number style. (Note: The page number can be set at the top of the page or at the bottom of the page, depending on your needs).
Isn’t it very simple, but if you often edit long Word documents, you must have encountered these two problems:
① It is not necessary to set page numbers on the document cover page and table of contents page. Page numbers only start from the text page.
② When the page number starts from the main text, then the total number of pages is also calculated from the main text (that is, the total number of pages is reduced by one page). How to set it?
How to solve it? Friends who don’t know, let’s take a look at the solution!
## In [Header and Footer Tools/Design]-[ Select "Different Home Page" in Options], then the home page page number will automatically disappear.
Although the page number on the first page disappears, the page number on the first page disappears. The page number displayed on the second page still starts from page 2, so how to set it to start from page 1?
Enter the header and footer state, click "Page Number" in [Design]-[Header and Footer], select "Set Page Number Format", and set the "Start Page Number" in the dialog box that opens. "0" starts. At this time, the page number of the second page starts from 1.
Because the table of contents page does not account for the number of pages , therefore, the total number of pages should exclude the first page and only display the remaining pages. For example: the original 1/8 means that the current Word document is page 1 of 8 pages. Except for the first page of the table of contents, it should be displayed as page 1/7. How to solve this problem?
Position the cursor at the bottom of the page number and press the Alt F9 key combination. At this time, the page number will become a piece of code {PAGE} / {NUMPAGES}.
Select the total page number code, and then press Ctrl F9 to insert curly brackets {}. Modify it to {={NUMPAGES}-1}. After the setting is completed, right-click and select Switch Field Code or press the Alt F9 key combination, that is, the page number becomes page 1/7.
Question supplement: If we want to distinguish the content of different sections in a long document, we need to set multiple separators to divide it into sections. At the same time, the page number is recalculated from each section page, and the corresponding page number needs to be changed. How to solve this problem?
- ① Position the mouse cursor in front of the first character of the page that needs to be divided into sections, and click [Layout]-[Separator-[Next Page]).
- ②Enter the header and footer, uncheck "Different Home Page", then click [Design]-[Page Number]-[Set Page Number Format] to set the starting page number value or page number Style etc.
- ③ Then Alt F9 switches to code editing and changes the code {PAGE}/{NUMPAGES} to {PAGE}/{SECTIONPAGES}. This completes the setting of page numbers after sectioning.
Code explanation:
{NUMPAGES} refers to the total number of pages in the entire document; {SECTIONPAGES} refers to the total number of pages in the current section.
