help in publisher auto number at top

adbp1 · 15 Jun 2012 at 12:49

Hi, am doing a booking in repair card and would like to be able to have an auto generated number (1-1000) to be put at the top of each ticket. 2 tickets (1 each side next to each other) to an A4 paper

is this possible? if so how?

thanks Ali

Publisher 2003

Insert > Page Number

And then Ctrl + M to duplicate that box on the master page

This is what your looking to do?

Is it two tickets on a single page?

Maybe a print screen onto here will help

Is that a page or a spread (2 pages)?

thats 1 page A4

So the auto-numbering works?

it does work but can only get it on left or right cant get it to do on both side.

would also like to be able to put at bottom of page which would be customer tear-off

Are you going into the master page and duplicating it? You can then place these text boxes anywhere you like
