Some of these videos seem to explain that, but the Writer version may be somewhat different so you might have to look around for similar tools in your version. skipping over the Title, Table of Contents, etc. I take it that you want "" to be several pages into the document. Have you checked YouTube videos? They seem to have a lot on this topic: You don't really need the page numbers yet, do you? But the book is still a work-in-progress. Yes, I understand about putting the page number in the footer (or header). you've just got to find the right way to tell it what you want to do. They are not far enough off to be a significant problem, and the difference in versions is not going to solve your problem. ![]() ![]() So, LibreOffice likely will have a more recent edition than what Mint will update to, but don't worry about that too much. When you update the operating system, Linux Mint, it often does not contain the very latest edition of a program. Looking at LibreOffice Writer seems that page numbers can be separate from footers too, though I'm not sure that is a better idea, and it probably isn't. doc format and see if I can figure out anything with page numbering. I'll try to go download a small book from the web in text or. so if you have run those, you should be up to date with LibreOffice too. LibreOffice should update with the system updates for Linux Mint. While I don't think you need to re-install LibreOffice, you might want to update it, if you haven't already. Even then you may have quite a bit of proofreading and/or editing to do before turning into more of a "finished product." I don't think I'd worry about footers or page numbers until the whole manuscript is entered in and complete. It seems like manual page numbers are a bad idea with an on-going project subject to maybe many changes and edits. I like your idea to start fresh and either import or copy/paste into a new document. I don't think it is misbehaving, although I know it seems like that. I don't think you need to re-install LibreOffice. If I try enabling the footer the line and cursor pointer skips down to the third page of the content - I thought this might be because of the Title and Table of Contents pages, which are not to be numbered, so I moved them to a separate document, and then erased them from the MS, then tried again to number the pages using the default footer, then inserting the page number, but this didn't help. If I put in a page number without using a footer, then the page number would move with the content as I typed. But sometime after I typed the MS, the page numbering got messed up: instead of showing the proper page number on each page, I suddenly had each page numbered as "1" if I changed that to make each succeeding page have its own number, all the other pages, both before and after the page I was working on, would have that new page number. When I first typed the MS, I had enabled the default footer (in the Insert drop down box), and then (also from the insert drop down box) inserted page numbers at the bottom of each page. In doing so, I have typed a Title page, Table of Contents, and 364 pages of content. I have Linux Mint 17.3 "Rosa", and LibreOffice for document work, and am having trouble with LibreOffice page numbering. I realised that page-breaks actually aren’t special characters but part of paragraph formatting/style of the succeeding paragraph (or in very rare cases of the preceding one – in which case this method would need to be slightly modified).Hello.
