page numbers

[waldorfedu]

I am writing a series of booklets for use in eastern Europe. I am in the
process of setting up a template but running into some complications (first
time I have used any version of Publisher; version 2007 is version I'm
using). It is in metric (105 x 148.5cm), consists of 32 pages and after the
first page, facing pages (last page is also single to keep publication with 4
page set up). I want the first and last pages of the template to be blank;
the second and third pages in the template just to contain at bottom "TEI ©
2008" but starting at page 4 (with facing page 5) and from then on, to
contain "TEI © 2008" but also page numbers. I do not mind whether they are at
the top or bottom of the page (but advice welcome on this) but on even pages
(starting page 4), page numbers would need to be on left; and on odd pages,
starting facing page 5,page numbers would need to be on right. Developments
so far - I have first and last pages blank and pages 2 & 3 with just "TEI ©
2008". I also have "TEI © 2008" on all the other pages (4 to 32) but for
whatever reasons I cannot insert page numbers on left starting page 4 (which
would be page 1) and on right, starting page 5 (which would be page 2); when
I insert page numbers, page 4 is numbered page 4 when it needs to be numbered
page 1 and so on. Your advice welcome - thanks.

Go to page four, insert, section, check *begin a section with this page* check
*start at page 1* Okay out. Insert, page numbers.

Go to the master page, ctrl+m, type TEI @ 2008 in front of the #
Create a new Master Page, create a text box with TEI @ 2008. Place it on the
page where you need it.

Go to the publication page, on page one (cover)click ignore master page on the
drop down, on pages 2 and 3 apply master page 2.
Go to page 4 (page 1) with Master A, click Apply to Page Range. type 4 to 31.

Why not use several Master Pages?

In this particular situation two Master Pages is sufficient.
