I am using version 2.0 of OpenOffice.org and my problem is:
I can't set page numbers on my open document.
I have tried the help page instructions:
insert - footers... but there is no box to choose position, type of
numbering and no number appears in the footer box.
Please advise.
With thanks,
Meg Parkes
Insert>Footers>Default and then Insert Fields. Choose Page Number. The number
1 will appear at the left end of the footer. Use normal formatting options -
font, centre, bold, whatever - to format it. Of course you can also enter text
before and/or after the number such as "Page ".
If you double click immediately to the left of the page number a pane will
open which lets you choose all sorts of different styles such as Roman numerals
in upper or lower case and so on.
