  • Adding a Page Number to an OpenOffice.org Writer document
    Note: See a related post on starting a document with no page number on the first page and page 1 on the second page.

      

    You can do this a number of ways, but this is the quickest.

      
    1. First, make a footer for the page number to appear in. Choose Insert > Footer > Default.
      
    2. Scroll to the bottom of the document; you'll see the footer.
      
    3. Click in the footer. Press Tab if you want the page number in the middle, press again if you want it at the right.
      
    4. Type the word page if you want, followed by a space.
      
    5. Choose Insert > Fields > Page Number.
      
    6. Format the text in the footer the way you want it.
      
      

    If you want to have no page number on the first page and start with 1 or 2 on the second page, that's a bit more advanced. Stay tuned for the blog on page styles.

      
      

    (You can do the footer turn-on by choose Format > Page > Footers, too.)
