Print Ranges

W

I have a Word 2003 document (actually a master document) which starts at page
iv and goes to xvii and then begins at page 1 up until the end of the
document (much like a book). If I print the whole document everything works
fine, but if I need to only print pages iv to xvii (or anything in this
range) I am told the range is invalid. If I print page 1 I get the 1st page
after xvii. So I have tried to select all the text on pages iv to xvii and
use the "print selection" command but then the page numbers don't show up on
the document. Does anyone know how to print this range without printing the
whole document?

p.s. The sub-documents that make up this range are the TOC, List of Figures,
etc. so I can't really print them separately.

In order to restart numbering, you probably had to insert a section break? In
that case, you need to specify the section and page numbers. Picking up on your
example, try: s1p4 - s1p17
