Spelling Out Page Numbers
You know how to add page numbers to your document. You would like the page numbers to be spelled out, however; for instance, "seven" instead of "7" or "fifteen" instead of "15."
When you use the various Word tools for adding page numbers to a document, those page numbers are inserting using fields. One of the great things about fields is that you can modify what they produce by using switches. Try these steps:
- Insert your page numbers as you normally would.
- Select the field that makes up the page number.
- Press Shift+F9 to display the field code instead of the field results.
- After the field code (which is more than likely the PAGE code), enter the following: \* CardText
- If you want the spelled-out word to use an initial capital letter (as in "Seven"), then add the following to the field code: \* Caps
- Press F9 to update the field code and display its results.
