Jan,

You can get the results you describe by doing the following:

At the very beginning of your document, insert the DBT code [svpnp0]. You can insert a code either by selecting it from the drop-down codes list (press F5), or by pressing Control-left bracket and entering the code directly. If you enter the code directly, do not enter the brackets as part of the code. At the point in the document where you want page numbering to start again, enter the code [svpnp2:2]. This turns page numbering back on, with the numbers positioned at the top right corner of each braille page.

Steve,

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Let me explain further what I'm looking for.

I am a six-key entry user. I am editing a document someone else did and didn't put in page numbers. I am adding the page numbers but do not want to start #1 on the title page. No matter what I do it numbers the Title page #1, the Transc. Notes #2 the Contents #3 and then starts numbering #1 again with the first page of the story. I want to eliminate #1-#3 and just start numbering with the beginning page of the story. In Pokadot I number the title page, etc. as p#1, p#2 etc. but I guess you can't do that with Duxbury???? I find Duxbury frustrating!!

Jan,

Do you want to get rid of all page numbers, or only certain
ones? You can suppress them all by going to Documents/Page
numbering, where you'll find radio buttons for suppressing page
numbers on both odd and even pages. Alternatively, you can turn page
numbering off by inserting the DBT code [svpnp0] at the point in your
document where you want page numbering to cease. To turn it on
again, insert the code [svpnp2:2]. For the complete description of
how this code works, consult the topic "Page numbering" under "DBT
codes" in the Help section.
