The total page count in your book should conclude on an even number. Left-side pages should carry even numbers, while right-side pages should have odd numbers. Include blank and unnumbered pages in your total page count for the quote.
Microsoft Word offers versatile tools for crafting complex documents, especially useful for books and large publications that may require distinct page number formats in different sections.
For instance, you might opt for Roman numerals (e.g., "i.", "ii.", "iii.") for index pages and Arabic numerals (e.g., "1", "2", "3") for the main document. The following steps elucidate how to establish varied page numbering formats:
Format Page Numbering:
- Click between two sections of your document that require different numbering.
- Navigate to the Insert menu and select Break.
- Choose Next Page, Even Page, or Odd Page, then click OK.
- Click within the first section.
- Go to the View menu, click Header and Footer.
- Select where you want the page number in the header or footer.
- On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Insert Page Number.
- Click Format Page Number on the toolbar.
- In the Number format box, choose the desired format for the numbers in this section.
- Choose one of the following:
- To start page numbering at a specific number other than the first in the series, click Start at under Page numbering and enter the desired first number.
- To continue numbering from the previous section, click Continue from previous section.
- Click OK.
- On the Header and Footer toolbar, click Show Next.
