Abacab Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 My version of Publisher is 1.7.0.249 Have tried to get page numbering to work but after selecting TEXT and then INSERT, there is no PAGE NUMBER. Is it missing from my version or have I failed to do something. Cheers Rog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a Text Frame selected, with the text insertion cursor within the frame?

Kuptin Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I'm (just about) managing to cope with numbering pages for a book, but after inserting the text into the frame on the master page, the page number appears absolutely enormous – to make it look sensible I have to reduce the font size to about 4pt. Am I doing something wrong? I normally use InDesign, which doesn't have that problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like you may have scaled the Text Frame using the lower-right, detached, handle rather than the corner handle. Doing that would also enlarge the text.

David Gerson Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Does anyone have an idea what I did wrong here? Page numbers work on almost all other pages in the doc (Only one Master Page) but maybe I screwed up somewhere. I attached a pic of the layers of the page in case that's where I screwed up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi @David Gerson, the red dots indicate text overflow of the text frame in which your page numbers are placed. Try to make the text frame wider (on the master page). d.
