Hi Ardell, The [svpnpN:N:N:N] code will hopefully solve your problem. I've laid out the detailed explanation below, but for now, let us assume you want page numbers only on odd pages in the top right hand corner. The following code will do this:- [pv1][pnta][svpnp2:0:0:0] To explain for everyone's benefit. [pv1] sets the page numbering to 1. [pnta] sets the numbering to arabic, or normal, numbers [svpnp2:0:0:0] the "2" here says to put numbers on odd pages or sides at the upper right. The remaining 0's stop any other page numbering appearing. The following explanation after my signature gives you more detail. Hope this helps, George. [svpnpN:N:N:N] -- Set page number placement values. The N's are given in the order: 1st N = braille (internal) page number on odd sides, 2nd N = braille (internal) number on even sides, 3rd N = print (reference) number on odd sides, 4th N = print (reference) number on even sides. The possible values for any N are: 0 for no place, 1 for upper left, 2 for upper right, 3 for lower left, 4 for lower right. The default values are 4, 4, 2 and 2 respectively (corresponding to American "textbook format"). E.g. [svpnp2:2:0:0] would establish customary literary format, with braille page numbers at upper right and no print page numbers shown. ________________________________ From: duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:duxuser-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Laroy Nolte Sent: 06 March 2004 05:02 To: duxuser@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [duxuser] setting page number Once again I'm having trouble setting the correct page number. The previous page is xvii and I want the next page to be 1. The page numbers are to be only on odd pages. I have used the code [pv1][pnta] at the beginning of the last line of page xvii. Obviously I'm not doing something correctly. I am sure someone can set me on the right track.
