    • Edit the page number to make it
      • Start at page 1, not 0
      • Use Roman Numerals.
  • Move to section two (Heading 1)
    • Note, there is a a page number at the bottom of the second page of this section.
    • Fix the footer
      • Move to the first page of this section (First Page Footer -Section 2-)
      • If link to previous is set, unset it.
      • Different First Page is checked, so uncheck it.
      • It is likely that if you change this, link to previous will be turned back on. If so, turn it off.
      • Delete the page number here.
      • Check to see that the title page and the TOC are still numbered correctly.
      • If not, fix them, if so, smile and move on.
    • Not fix the header
      • Move back to the first header in section 2.
      • Turn link to previous off.
      • If different first page is on, turn it off.
      • Turn link to previous off if it came back on.
      • Insert a page number in the upper right hand corner
      • Check to see the following pages are correct.
    • Page 2 is good, but page 3 doesn't have a number.
      • This is due to the multiple columns break.
      • Go to the header
      • Turn off link to previous.
      • Turn off Different First Page
      • Turn off link to previous if you need to.
      • Format the page numbers to Continue from previous section not restart at 0.
      • Check all pages above to make sure they are numbered correctly
  • Fix everything through page 10.
    • It looks like all we need to do is mark the page numbers to continue from the previous section
    • CAUTION this was not the case in previous versions of word. We would also need to turn off Link to Previous
