... trying to solve a problem with Apache Open Office. I have a
document that is 320 pages. I will be away over the holidays and
will need Staples to print about 35 pages for me. However, when I
view the word document, it does not provide any page breaks. No
matter what page I am viewing, it appears as page 1.
Sorry, but this is not exactly clear.
Documents don't necessarily need manual page breaks: text can just
flow naturally from page to page. But if there were no page breaks of
any sort, the whole document would appear on a single page - not 320 of them.
When you say the viewed page "appears as page 1", do you mean that
you have the page number supposedly included on every page? If these
are in a header or footer and all appear as "1", you must have
inserted "1" in the header instead of using Insert | Fields > | Page Number.
Or do you mean that you have cut your 35 pages out from the full
document in order to create a new, smaller document to be printed?
(Or perhaps that you are cutting individual single pages out in the
same way?) If you do that, and if your page numbering is done in the
normal automatic fashion, then your new document will obviously now
start at page 1, of course. If you want your short section to be a
separate document starting at a page number later than 1:
o Put the cursor into its first paragraph and go to Format |
Paragraph... | Text Flow (or right-click | Paragraph... | Text Flow).
o Under Breaks, tick Insert (with Type: Page and Position: Before).
o Tick With Page Style and set your required starting page number at
"Page number".
Or do you mean something else?
Can anyone out there provide a solution.
Possibly only with more detail ...
I trust this helps.
