How do i add page numbers to an existing document

how do i add page numbers to an existing document

Not sure if you want to add page number in the footer of the page or want to reset numbering in the page thumbnail view, so I am giving you video tutorial link for both the methods.
1. Header-Footer method.

2. Adding Page number

  • How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing. I do not want the page numbers the software automatically places into my document.

    How do I add page numbers to my document without the page numbers automatically changing? The title page is blank, I can type in 1 on the 1st typed page, but the #1 automatically goes into the next page and will not change.

    Click at bottom of the first page:
    Menu > Insert > Section break
    Click somewhere in the 2nd page (not the header/footer)
    Inspector > Layout > Section > Page Numbers > Start at 1 > Configuration > uncheck use previous headers and footers
    Click into the header or footer of the second page:
    Menu > Insert > Auto Page Numbers…
    If there is anything in the header or footer on the first page that you don't want just select it and delete it.
    If you really wanted to manual place page numbers on each page you will have to use a section break between each and every page. I can't imagine that would be useful.

  • How do I add page numbers on a Pages doc.?

    How do I add page numbers on a pages doc.?

    It won't work in Layout mode documents but in Word Processor documents:
    1. Add a Textbox and move it to the top right, turn off Textwrap
    2. Insert a page number in the box
    3. Select the Textbox: Menu > Arrange > Section Master > Move Objects to Section Master/Make Master Objects Selectable
    4. Insert a Section Break on each page. It has to be a Section break otherwise editing the Master Objects will repeat on previous pages.

  • How do I add page numbers to a document in Pages 5.2

    How do I add page numbers  to a document in Pages 5.2?   I'm sure there's some way to do this but it's less obvious than in the previous version of Pages.

    Click on one of the Header or Footer fields and you will get a pop-up asking if you want to add page numbers, and a choice of formats.
    You also may use Insert > Page Number.

  • How can I add page numbers using Adobe Reader?

    I am trying to add page numbers to my document only using Adobe Reader.  Is that possible?  Or do I need to use Adobe Acrobat?

    The free Reader can do very little more than reading (opening) PDF files. I'd use Acrobat.

  • How do I stop Pages from reformatting my existing documents?

    If I open an existing document, created in Pages (pre-update version) it now reformats my documents with new fonts, inserts bullet point tables and generally takes a perfectly good document and makes a hash of it. Does anyone know how to go back to the old version of Pages or stop this version from ruining my documents & causing time wasting reformatting back to what I created? BTW this is on my iMac which is running the latest version of Maverick & the latest version of Pages. On my Macbook Pro whilst the system shows I did update Pages to version 5 it hasn't actually done that so I'm lucky I can still see my documents as I intended. Most of the documents involve recipes which have lists of ingredients & methods but DON'T NEED BULLETS!

    In the Australian App Store it is within a whisker of "I hate it" reaching 70% of users.
    "I hate it + don't like it" = 80%

  • How to add page numbers to a PDF in Adobe but maintain the ability to convert to a PDF/A

    I have an PDF in adobe that I am able to convert into an adobe PDF/A document. However, when I use the header/footer option to add page numbers to the document it is no longer able to convert to a PDF/A document. How can I add page numbers and still be able to convert the document to a PDF/A?

    Hello jacquemac,
    Your first question:
    There might be a better way of achieving what you wish to do, but following these steps could help you out.
    You might want to blend in Thumbnails and Invisibles either with (cmd+shift+i and cmd+alt+p) or over the View section in the Menubar.
    1. go for Documents (right end of the Toolbar) -> Section
    2. place your cursor at the very top of your second page and click "Create new Section->Starting with this page" in the side bar on your right.
    (what you are actually doing next is setting the pagenumbers for each section you created. You can see your sections in the Thumbnail view.)
    3. click on your first page (the first and only page of your first section) and mark the checkbox "Hide on first page of section"
    4. click on your second page (the first page of your second section) and  "Insert page number" -> start at 1
    Your second question:
    Im not quite sure i understand what exactly you want to do here. One page, two columns, each column with another page number? As far as i know this is not possible.
    greetings jl

  • How to add page numbers in Numbers?

    How to add page numbers in Numbers?
    Is there a simple way like in Excel? Thanks.

    In Numbers '09, use Insert > Page Number
    Place the page number in a page header, and it will appear on each age when in Print View and when the file is prnted.
    May have changed in Numbers 3 (current version).

  • Adobe Reader - how to add page numbers with the free version?

    Hey guys,
    Imagine I've got a PDF file and I want to create a new one by selecting some pages out of it. I know this is simply possible by using the PDFcreator but I want to add page numbers. As far as I know this is not possible with the free version of Adobe unless I would add the page number on every single page by using a text box. I want to make different catalogs from the PDF so the page numbers are really necessary. Have you got any idea how to solve that issue? You know that's pretty much the only thing I need to add which means it's not worth buying the Pro version. Unfortunately I only got the PDF and I can't work on it e.g. with MS word before I export it. Do you know if there is a way to add page numbers with a free version? There might be an additional free software which allows that?
    Thanks for your support! 

    Thanks for your quick replies.
    I know how to add text page by page. But obviously it's hard to place the numbers on the very same position, is it?

  • How to insert page numbers in a PDF document?

    How to insert page numbers in a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.2?
    Thanks.

    OK, I found it myself:
    1. Tools - Pages - Edit Page Design - Header & Footer - Add Header & Footer.
    2. Select the font and size, etc, place the cursor on the appropriate site to insert the page number, click the "Insert Page Number" button, and click OK.
    That is!

  • I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. Mac users can no longer read the page numbers but pc users can.

    I am using CC adobe Acrobat to combine multiple pdfs and add page numbers. As of about 2 weeks ago the mac users can no longer read the page numbers they get a font error message and see only -- where the page information should be. The pc users do not have this same problem. When I replace our regular font (URW Grotesk) with a system font (Verdana) everyone is able to read the page numbers. This is a new issues, I have been creating these documents in the same way for years without a problem. I have been on hold and on and off calls for the last two hours, I keep getting hung up on once I find someone in adobe support to talk to!

    Hi KnoopL,
    Are the Mac users using Preview to view the pdfs or Adobe Reader?
