When writing a paper in word, many users will be asked by the teacher to add page numbers, otherwise it will be messy and difficult to check, but many students don't know how to set them. Therefore, the following is the operation method of setting page numbers in word, which I believe students will soon master.

How does word set page numbers:

1. First, open your Word document and enter the main page.

2. Put the mouse under the footer and double-click the mouse to enter the editing state.

At this point, the header and footer can be edited, but the body content is grayed out.

3. Then under the Header and Footer Tool Design tab, select Page Number-Bottom of Page-General Number 2.

Here, the three page formats of ordinary numbers 1, 2 and 3 are the same, but the positions are different, namely "left alignment, center alignment and right alignment", which can be selected according to your own needs.

4. At last, you can see that it has been set successfully.
