I have a fairly long, imported document that I have now set up with Outline, etc., but I cannot get it to take page numbers. Whenever I go into the Header or Footer, the options are greyed out, so I cannot choose any. Consequently, I cannot add page numbers.
Can someone tell me how to insert page numbers? Are there 'codes' that need to be deleted? Thank you.
page numbers on imported document

1. Go to the first page of the document you want numbered.
2. Open the page palette, make sure "All pages" is selected.
3. If you want the page numbers to be in the footers, click "Show first page footer" and also "All/odd footer"
4. Make sure you have ticked "Start at 1" near the bottom of the palette.

That's the problem -- it can be a little confusing at first -- in Mellel you can only make changes to the control parameters of a footer/header from outside the footer/header.soliphint wrote:when I click in the header or footer, I do not have the option of choosing anything. All the options are greyed out and 'dead.'
Click somewhere in the body of the text.
Now, check the Page palette, you'll see all the options available.
