To put a page number to each page of your document:
- switch to the Insert tab and click the Header or Footer icon at the top toolbar,
- choose the Insert page number submenu,
- select the page number position on the page clicking one of the presets: Top Left, Top Center, Top Right, Bottom Left, Bottom Center, Bottom Right.
Note: if you have an existing header or footer, it will be replaced with the page number.
Instead of using the icon on the top toolbar, you can activate a header/footer by double-clicking it, then click the Header and Footer Settings icon at the right sidebar and select the necessary page number position.
Here you can also set the Position of page numbers relative to the top or bottom of the page.
If necessary, change the appearance of the added page numbers: select a number with the mouse and use icons at the Home tab of the top toolbar to apply the necessary font type, size and color.
When ready, double-click anywhere outside of the header/footer area.
To insert page numbers into a specific position within the existing header/footer text:
- double-click a header or footer of the document to activate it,
- put the insertion point within the header/footer text where you want to add a page number,
- switch to the Insert tab and click the Header or Footer icon at the top toolbar,
- choose the Insert Page Number submenu,
- select the To Current Position option.
To insert the total number of pages in your document (e.g. if you want to create the Page X of Y entry):
- put the cursor where you want to insert the total number of pages,
- switch to the Insert tab and click the Header or Footer icon at the top toolbar,
- select the Insert number of pages option.
To remove the page number at the first page,
- double-click a header or footer with the added page number to activate it,
- click the Header and Footer Settings icon at the right sidebar,
- check the Different first page box,
- select the first page number and press Delete.
Note: it's also possible to apply different page number formats for odd and even pages. To do that, activate a header/footer and check the Different odd and even pages box at the right sidebar, then format odd and even page numbers in the way you need.
