> > Hi, > > I have problems with the headers and footers in Open Office and I have > no idea how to solve it, I read all the information on the internet > but it still does not work for me. > > I am creating a report and I want the page numbering and the headers > and footers starting from page 4. First page is Title, 2nd a > confidentiality agreement and the 3rd is the table of contents. So the > report _starts_ at page 4. > > Could someone pls help me cause I am totally stuck at the moment_ > In OpenOffice.org this is achieved through two different page styles. One without the header and/or footer and one with them. You can read up on page styles: http://documentation.openoffice.org/ Specifically chapters 6 and 7 in the writers guide. You can download the complete book as a PDF: http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/userguide3/0200WG3-WriterGuide.pdf or the individual chapters: http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/userguide3/index.html More specifically read the subheadings "The Styles and Formatting Window", "Applying Page Styles" in chapter 6 and "Working with Page Styles" in chapter 7. This is not something you are expected to be familiar with if you have come from Microsoft Word. Word does not have the power of styles applied to pages. -- Michael All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well - Julian of Norwich 1342 - 1416 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
