If youre writing a paper, and need to have the front-matters page numbers in roman numerals (i, ii, iii, iv, etc.), and the remainder of the paper in arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.), this how-to is for you. The key is to create distinct Sections in the document, however, Microsoft has made this ridiculously difficult in Word for Mac 2011.
characters and formatting that dont show up when printed but are essential for formatting Step 3: Create new Sections: Creating multiple sections in a document
allows you to apply different formatting (i.e. page numbering) to different sections
1. To create a new section, go to the end of the previous page and click Insert

3. Click on Header and Footer on the purple ribbon on the top of the screen
on the right of Home and under the Save icon button. (This only appears once you click on View -> Header and Footer).

1. Click into the header/footer in the section you want to apply the numbering
to.
2. Click Insert -> Page Numbers and make sure to set the appropriate
(Note: If the numbering is somehow applying to both Section 1 and Section 2, go back into the header and footer ribbon and ensure that Link to Previous us unchecked for Section 2 s header and footer. This is likely the cause, as this version of Word seems to reset this value to default on its own.)
