Controlling page numbering
By default, the first page of every document is assigned the number “1”. However,
if necessary you can instruct TextMaker to begin with a different number.
To do this, invoke the Format > Chapter command, change the Page number
setting from Increment to Value and enter the desired starting number in the edit
box. For example, type “42” to assign the number 42 to the first page.
Changing the properties of headers and footers
By default, TextMaker adjusts the position and size of the frame that contains a
header or footer automatically.
Accordingly, when you increase the left or right page margin, TextMaker automatically
decreases the width of the header and footer frames to match.
You can modify the properties of the header and footer frames as required, and in
this way change their widths or set their distances from the text and page edges.
To do this, proceed as follows:
1. Click with the mouse in the header or footer frame – depending on whether you
want to edit the header or the footer.
Alternatively, you can invoke Insert > Go to Header or Insert > Go to Footer,
which accomplish the same thing.
2. Invoke the Object > Properties command to bring up the associated dialog.
Tip: This dialog can also be invoked by clicking on the
and Footer toolbar.
