About Page Numbering

Beyond just picking a position, you get to choose how the number itself reads: a plain number (the default), "Page 1 of 9" style with the total page count included, or a centered em-dash style like "— 1 —" often used in formal print layouts. Font family (Arial, Times, or Courier), size, bold, italic, underline, and color are all adjustable from a compact toolbar, so the numbering can match the rest of your document instead of looking like an obviously bolted-on stamp.

You can also set the starting number (useful when this file is one chapter of a larger, already-paginated document), restrict numbering to a From/To page range to skip a cover page or exclude an appendix, and choose a margin preset — narrow, recommended, or wide — that controls how far the number sits from the page edge. Numbers are added as a new layer on top of the existing content; nothing about the original pages is modified.
