What if you need to use different page number formats (1, 2,….or I, II, …. or A, B, C,….etc.) in different sections of a聽document? Many writers follow this convention of using Roman numerals in the initial few pages and continue with聽integer numbers for the rest of the pages of the document.

To achieve such page numbering style in MS Word, we need to聽use 聽Section Breaks. Each document section can have unique page number format.

The following procedure shows how to insert Roman numerals on the Footer section of the first three pages of a document and then integers for the rest of the document.

THE PROCEDURE

Firstly, will divide the document into two sections by applying a Section Break. The first section will consist of the first three pages of the document.

To apply a section break

Place mouse cursor at the bottom of the third page of the document. From the Ribbon, under the聽tab聽Page Layout, within the group聽Page Setup, click Breaks. A drop-down聽list appears. From the list, select option聽Next Page聽available聽under Section Breaks.

Word inserts a Section Break at the end of the third page. If you are unable to view the Section Break, click Ctrl+Shift+8. With a Section break, Word divides the document into two logical sections.

To enable the Footer section of the document

Right-click at the bottom of the document and then click Edit Footer. Word enables the Footer section. Place cursor at the Footer section of the third page (where you are going to insert page number). Now, we are going to insert page number in the footer.

To insert page number

On the Insert tab, within the group聽Header & Footer,聽click the Page Number drop-down and then point聽to Current Position. From the Current Position sub menu, select Plain Number (see below image). Word inserts a page number at聽the cursor position for the first three pages. Subsequently, change the page number format to Roman numbers. Select the page number that has been inserted. On the Insert tab, within the group聽Header & Footer group, click Page Number and then navigate to Format Page Numbers. On the Format Page Numbers dialog box, select Roman numerals from the Number Format drop-down list. Word replaces the integer numbers with Roman numerals as pages i, ii and iii.

Word will insert page number starting with number.

Note:聽If you do not want your cover page to have the page number, do the following:
