PAGE NUMBERING
The 820-11 will automatically number pages for you.
If
you don't want page numbers,
you can tell the 820-11 to omit them.
The page numbers automatically start with the number one on the first page of a
document file.
If
you want to start page numbering with a number other than one,
you can tell the 820-11 to change the page number.
The page number automatically prints centered at the bottom of the page.
If
you
want the page number printed in some other location, you can tell the 820-11 to
change the page number location.
You can also tell the 820-11 to put text with the page numbers. For instance, the
word "Page" in front of the number; or the words "First Draft" at the top of the page.
This type of text positioning is referred to as Headers and Footings.
This chapter tells you how to do all of the above.
OMITTING PAGE NUMBERS
There may be times when you don't want your document to print with page numbers
on it. You can easily tell the 820-11 to omit the page numbers.
The omit page number command is given by typing .OP at the left margin (in column
1)
followed by a RETURN. When the 820-11 sees a period (.) in column 1, it knows
tha t this is a special command, called a dot command. It will act on the command,
but it will not pr int the command.
The picture below shows the omit page number command .OP typed at the beginning
of a document file •
• OP
It may be manifested in a flat inexpressive voice, or an expressionless
face or a tense posture.
Even the most sensitive speakers are too
conscious of their faults and limitations.
They dwell too much on their negative points and fail to remember
their positive points. After all, people with a technical background are, on
the whole, better informed about the material world than most of the
population.
If
you want to start page numbering on a page further back in the file, you can type
.PN on the page where you want a page number. Remember, the .PN must be at the
left margin and must be followed by a RETURN.
