1. Open the Writer document that you want to edit, then tap inside the document.
2. Tap Tools at the bottom.
3. Select the Insert tab.
4. Tap Page Number.
5. In the pop-up settings window, choose the page number style you want and confirm the insertion.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: A page number appears in the header or footer area of the document.
• Next action available: You can continue to adjust settings or keep editing the document body.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: If the document is not in editing mode, the full insert entry may not appear.
• Environment note: A single-page document makes continuous numbering harder to review, so a multi-page file is recommended.

2. Adjust page number settings

Entry: Tools → Insert → Page Number

1. Open the page number settings window.
2. Under Position, choose Header or Footer.
3. Under Alignment, choose Left, Center, or Right.
4. Under Number Format, choose the numbering style you need, such as 1, 2, 3 or i, ii, iii.
5. Under Start Page Number, enter the starting number you want and confirm.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: The page number position, format, or starting value changes in the document.
• Next action available: You can review the document and check whether the numbering matches your layout needs.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: If you change settings without confirming them, the update may not take effect.
• Environment note: For more complex page layout requirements, further adjustment may still be easier on desktop.

3. Remove page numbers

Entry: Tools → Insert → Page Number

1. Open the document that already contains page numbers.
2. Go to Tools and open the Insert tab.
3. Open the Page Number settings.
4. Choose the option to remove page numbers from the current document and confirm.

Success Criteria

• Interface result: Page numbers no longer appear in the document.
• Next action available: You can insert a new page number style or continue editing the document body.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: Removing page numbers clears the current automatic numbering display, so confirm before applying the change.
