Hello Susan When you say paginate do you mean page numbering. This easily achieved as follows:
1. Create a new Writer document. 2. Go to Insert > Footer or Insert > Header on the main menu bar and select Default Style, or the style you want to use if you have created a footer or header style. 3. Go to Insert > Fields on the main menu bar and select Page Number and, if you need a page count, Insert > Fields > Page Count. 4. Go to Format > Page on the main menu bar to open the Page Style dialog and click on the Page tab. 5. In the Layout settings section select the page layout you want to use and click Apply or OK. Pagination is a term normally used for for laying pout the order of pages document for printing by professional printers. For example, a newspaper is paginated so that when the sheets of newsprint are folded to make the newspaper the pages are in the correct order. When you print a document on your own printer there is no need to worry about pagination. However, if you want to print a brochure in Writer, go to File > Print to open the Print dialog. In the options for LibreOffice, click on More and select Brochure. This will tell your printer to paginate the document so that when you fold the brochure document, the pages will be in the right order, just like a newspaper. I am one of the technical writers on the LO team, but have never looked at the Writer Guide, so I maybe slightly wrong in what I have suggested. However, I do use Writer to produce the guides for Impress and Draw.
