Trouble formatting page numbers

[Tanya]

I have a document that uses a 2 page master, both pages have a page number
centered in the footer. When I switch from the Master to the publication
pages, the page number moves over to the outer margin of the page...I hae
tried deleting the footer and re-insterting, copying from a file that the
footer is centered correctly, etc... nothing seems to work for long. Any
ideas?

Thank you!

Tanya

You can move the page number text box anywhere on the Master Page, format it
right, left or center. It behaves the same as any text box.

I tried doing the same thing but didn't run into the same problem. I did
discover that there are two ways to set up page numbers... one is to view
header & footer, then insert page numbers, as you would in Word. When I did
that, the page numbers automatically showed up left justified.
You can also go straight to "insert" and select page numbers - it allows you
to set the postion there. Perhaps if you've only done it one of these ways
you could see if the other one worked for you. Hope that helps.
