![]() ![]() Here it is possible to make references to any heading in the document, any footnote or endnote, to the pictures or tables with caption, to the numbered paragraphs. It is then recommended leaving the format on "As Page Style" and to not use the offset. To change the page number, instead of the offset we need to insert a page break with change of page style, selecting to restart the numbering. To obtain pages with Roman or other kind of numeral the best way is to set that on the page style. This means that if we insert the table of content afterwards, the real number and not the "corrected" one will be shown there. ![]() This is the same with the "Offset" options that adds or subtracts a quantity to the real page number. It is important to note that if you insert a page number and select on the right panel a format different from the format set on the page style (for example, the page style is set as Arabic numerals and you choose Roman numerals) this will not change the numbering, it only will change its appearance. To do this, open the menu Insert → Fields → Others Now, we will review all the possibilities offered by fields in Writer. This background, whose color can be changed (or even completely eliminated) on Menu → Options → OpenOffice → Appearance → Text Document → Field shadings is very useful during editing because it allows one to distinguish between normal and automated text. With fields it is possible to set sequences to use automatically numbered figures or tables, or even show information taken from a database.īecause the content is automatically generated, during the editing of the document Writer shows the fields with a grey background that will not print nor be exported to PDF. On this menu other fields are available (Date, Author.).įields can not only show the page number or the total page count of the document, but are also able to show cross references to a heading or a footnote, information about the document (the chapter name or its number, the template in use, editing time, number of revisions.) as well as set a condition to hide a part of the content. As we have already seen in the section devoted to the headers/footers the page number must be inserted as a "field" with Insert → Field. ![]()
