Berk Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 So I want to put Roman numerals on the index of my thesis and I want the rest to be normal digits. I tried this shit https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Add-different-page-numbers-or-number-formats-to-different-sections-bb4da2bd-1597-4b0c-9e91-620615ed8c05?CorrelationId=af655448-b288-4eb6-a4e1-8ec3bdd4406d&ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US but it's not helping me at all. So I guess I will enter the digits manually, but it seems the fucking program won't even allow me to do that, everything is linked Help?

olo Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 You've discovered the glitch in the matrix of MS Office. Don't explore further or you'll tear a hole in the fabric of spacetime. I've had issues with something similar. I lost friends, family & almost lost myself... or try this https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Add-and-format-page-numbers-eac01196-cce7-4103-ab36-68b2ee6d3f45?CorrelationId=462240bf-cf91-4efb-a2fd-ac58cfdbf975&ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US or this Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide olo's signature Hide all signatures Thanks user487363530.

BobDobalina Posted March 23, 2015 Report Share Posted March 23, 2015 (edited) You need to use Section Breaks (under the Page Layout tab - use only "Next Page" breaks!), then un-"Link to Previous" the footers* of the body and index sections of your document. You can then right-click where your page number code is, select "Format Page Numbers...", and take it from there. HTH / Good luck! *edit - I assumed your page numbers are in the footer but headers work the same way Edited March 23, 2015 by Bob Dobalina Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide BobDobalina's signature Hide all signatures CA$HNE$$ Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/87104-entering-page-numbers-manually-word-2013/#findComment-2306398 Share on other sites More sharing options...
