Assigned footer section numbers are all messed up
Hi All,
I can' really understand what happened here (see attachment) The section jumps wildly from 28 to 75, messing up my page numbers. It does this jump in the middle of some endnotes. I really would like to avoid deleting all the section breaks and restart from scratch, as we are talking about many chapters here... Thank you for you answer already! |

That is a LOT of sections. Is there a reason for this?
More sections generally means more complexity. I suspect you'll be able to use the following: Word Toolkit for Advanced Management of Headers and Footers A single page can have more than one section, I've seen as many as eight in poorly designed documents! Sections / Headers and Footers in Microsoft Word (Ribbon Versions) It can be helpful to add the Section display to the Status Bar. |

Well, I cancelled most of them, but that one keeps on coming out from nowhere. I will try the toolkit, thank you!

That way, a large number of sections may be added.

With that number of section breaks, I am suspecting that it is a document converted from another format. |
