You can define a section marker to label section pages automatically. Any prefix you add
appears as part of the automatic page number, table of contents entry, cross-reference,
index entry, or any other automatic number. For example, if you specify A– for Section
Prefix on page 16 of a document, the generated number in the table of contents or index
would appear as A–16. Text you type for a section marker appears when you choose the
Insert Section Name command.

To define section numbering:
1 In the Pages palette, select the first page in the section you want to define.
2 Do one of the following:
Choose Layout > Numbering & Section Options.
•
Choose Numbering & Section Options in the Pages palette.
•
3 If you're changing the numbering options for any page other than the first page of the
document, make sure that Start Section is selected. This option marks the selected page as
the beginning of a new section.
4 As necessary, specify the following options, and then click OK:
Select Automatic Page Numbering if you want the page numbers of this section to
•
follow the numbering of the previous section. When you select this option, this
section's page numbers update automatically when you add pages before the first
page of this section.
Select Start Page Numbering At to make sure that the first page of this section is a
•
specific number, regardless of where it is in the document, and type the number; or
type 1 to restart the numbering. The remaining pages in the section will be numbered
accordingly. If you chose a non-Arabic page-numbering style for the Style option (such
as Roman numerals), you still must type an Arabic numeral in this box.
Select Section Prefix, and type a label for this section. This label appears in the page
•
box at the lower left corner of the document window, and it appears as part of such
automatic page numbers as table of contents and index entries. Include spaces or
punctuation as necessary so that the automatic number will appear as, for example, A–
16 or A 16, not A16. This label must fit in the page box, so it is limited to five characters.
It cannot be empty, and it cannot contain blank spaces.
