anyone know how to change page numbers on word? like instead of going 1, 2, 3, 4, it would go 1, 2, 4, 3?

ive been googling for awhile and i cant find it, something was close to what i want but it lets the page start at 11 from page 1 but then every other page follows as 12 13 14 etc. i tried changing the page number manually but every page would have the same page number i manually changed. can someone help?

well, yes, i could but i guess im not saying this correctly.

i just want to do it as

1, 2, 4 because 3 is just an other page i am including. so there would be no '3' as a page number.

If your talking about putting page numbers in the footer, you have to make sections breaks after each page, then you can make a different page number in each footer. Its annoying but the only way to do it.

You can change the print range so that it only prints the pages you want it to.
So like print 1,2,4 and it won't print the blank page 3.

You could just manually set the page numbers in the footer if its a small document.

edit: nvm, has already been suggested.

page break

then rearrange the page numbers (i.e. in your second section, make the pages start at 4).

well yeah in first page, i just did one page by one page, for some reason page breaks isnt working for me, maybe theres something with margins or w/e so i didnt toy with it. i did page 1 by one print and kept doing it, its not a lot of pages just in between there are a lot of space that got filled. its all good.

=(
just put in section breaks, unlink the footers from the previous sections and do it like that

works a charm. i have to do something similar all the fucking time for some of the reports i write due to the absolutely retarded numbering system (no number on the first 2 pages, then ii, iii, then 1 2 3, until the last 2 which go iv and v. seriously wtf?)

So have you figured it out yet?

I'm really bored, so here's a walk through for work 2k7 (2k3 is much easier)

Go to page layout on top --> breaks --> section break (choose one, say next page)

Go to second page, double click near footer area, uncheck link to previous

Click format page number, start with 3

That should give you the pages
1
3
4
5
6
etc.

Rinse and repeat for similar stuff.
