This offset thingy is really confusing (at least for me). As I understand it when you insert a page number field with offset = n OOo fills the field with the number where the field is inserted (say page p) + n (provided that such page exists). > >> I guess the easier way to achieve what you are after is to create a >> master document and add the four parts as sub-documents.

But then why worry about having the correct page number?
