Robert:
You plan to print almost 10,000 pages? That's a LOT of paper.
The way I'd approach this is to put the page number in a text box, then
position that text box in the header of the document, having defined the
document as having the same first, even, and odd header.
1. On the File > Page Setup > Layout tab, clear the "Different odd and
even" and "Different first page" check boxes.
2. In the body of the first page, use Insert > Textbox to drag a textbox
roughly the size of the number you envision using.
3. In the text box, use Insert > Field > Page to insert the page number.
4. Format the page number to the size and color you want. (You may need
to experiment and change it later, after putting it in the header.)
5. Cut the textbox, open the header, and paste the text box into the
header.
6. Select the text box (the frame, not the content) and click Format >
Textbox.
7. On the Layout tab, select Behind Text.
8. On the Colors and Lines tab, remove any outline or fill.
9. Test the result in Print Preview, by printing a page or more, and by
changing the start page to one with four digits to make sure your
textbox is wide enough.
