Section break odd pages with different numbering styles
I am creating a large document with different chapters. The first one has
roman numerals in the footer as page numbers. The second chapter then must start on an odd page with standard numbering i.e. 1,2,3. But although we are insering a section break, odd page, it is not working. I think it is to do with switching numbering styles. Help please. |

Section break odd pages with different numbering styles
What isn't working? If you mean that the odd section break is ignored
(acts like a new page section break), you have to enable "Different odd and even" and/or "Mirror margins" (both options are in FilePage Setup). Without these options set, Word looks at the page number of the second section and decides it doesn't need to insert a filler page (even if the first section ends on an odd page), since "1" is an odd number. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Ailish" wrote in message ...
