Add Page Numbers to a Proposal
You can add page numbers to a header or footer on a proposal.
Prerequisite: In the Navigation pane, select Proposals > Custom Proposals and then create a new proposal or open an existing proposal.
To add page numbers to a proposal:
- In the Settings pane, click Properties and then click Document Properties.
-
In the Document Properties pane, select the Header and/or
Footer option.
This inserts the same header and/or footer on all pages of the proposal.
- To create specific headers and/or footers for individual pages within the proposal, follow the directions in steps 3 and 4.
- To use one format for all headers and/or footers on all pages, continue to step 5.
- To create specific headers and/or footers for individual pages within the proposal, select the proposal page and click Page Properties.
-
Select the Header and/or
Footer option for the page.
This will override the default settings from the Document Properties pane only for the selected page.
-
To define the header and/or footer properties, select the actual header or footer on a page in the proposal.
Depending on whether you selected a header or a footer, the Header Properties or Footer Properties pane opens. You can define different settings for headers and footers, but the options that are available in the panes are the same.
-
Use the
Columns field to define how many columns display in the header or footer.
Columns are useful for including multiple types of information in the header or footer. A divider is inserted on the header or footer for each column. The maximum number of columns for a header or footer is 3. A column field displays for each column that is defined. For example, if you select 3 in the Columns field, then Column 1, Column 2, and Column 3 fields display.
These different columns are useful, for example, when a header includes the proposal title, date, and a page number. In this case, 3 columns would be defined.
- To insert a page number in the header or footer, select Field as the column type.
- On the Field Settings dialog box, set the Field list to Page Number.
- Use the Format field to select the type of page number format to apply to the header or footer: 1, 2, 3, 4, or I, II, III, IV, or a, b, c, d, and so on.
- Click Save.
