If you have "chapters" then you should make each one a separate
file.  That is what is prefered by the pros.
That is what the Fantasy author Piers Anthony does.  He uses
Open Office to write his books.

Maybe the "change page header commands" should be
looked at, so it will be from this point till the next change.
Some programmer out there may be able to do it for us.

Subject: [users] Reverse order printing

I am using not-quite-the-latest version of OOo (2.0.something) on my
Windows
XP box, connected to a HP 1160 printer via USB.  Printing a multiple copy
document makes it reverse the page order.  Clicking off the 'reverse'
checkbox made it work properly but only for that print command.  Is there
a
way to make the "off" status the default for that checkbox?

Another problem: I would like to print a document with headers like a
dictionary, where the header changes from page to page, or at least
chapter
to chapter.  The only way I can think to do it is to make each chapter a
separate document.  Making it do the header changes automatically would
be nice but that is not really necessary.  If the header could be set to
a "this
point forward" it would function.  However, altering the header does it
both
forward and backward.  :(

I'm not sure if I follow this correctly, but to change page numbers, you go to the top left corner of the page, press the right mouse button, then Paragraph>Text flow. Is there not something in the menu that will let you change the text of the header from that point on?
