Page number errors when using multi-page document with unique margins on page 1 for letterhead
I frequently make documents that are two to five pages long that are letters. Page 1 prints on letterhead and has an altered margin of 1.7" top, 1.6" left, 1" on both right and bottom. The way I set this up is every document starts at default 1" margins, I write the letter, then change custom margins for whole document, then go to the beginning of page 2 and set the 1" margins to begin at the top of page 2 from "this point forward." As a result, Word always alters my page numbers to where the first two pages of the document are now recognized as page 1 so when I print page 1 to letterhead, it prints two pages. When I print page 2 from the printer dialogue screen, it does not print page 2, it prints page 3. This issue occurs on multiple machines in my office, multiple versions of Word. Any help would be insightful to make it stop assigning page 1 to the first two pages of the document when using custom margins on page 1.
