Removing all page numbers and then some...

[Parvardigar]

Hello
The task handed me was to clean up this document the text from an out of print book. The intent is to publish the document as a PDF booklet. What I have are pages in letter size. There are two obstacles I need help on.

The first are the page numbers on every page. I have Googled 'removing all page numbers from a word 2007 document' and there are many suggestions - and though I have attempted to use all those tips I am unable to remove the page numbers. I have attached a few pages in the hope that there is a remedy.

Secondly I need to adjust the pages so that the fit to what was the original book text page size: 5.5 x 8.8
It's not to be exact rather that the final PDF document should look and read as the original in a 5.5 x 8.8 presentation.

If there are comments to assist in the project I will be most grateful. Thanks!

Your source document has a lot of strange formatting in it. I would start by selecting all the text (Ctrl-A), creating a new blank document, then Paste Special>Unformatted Text. This will remove all the section breaks and so on.

It will probably also remove the page numbers, which in your source document are inserted as images in the footers. To check, go to Insert>Header & Footer>Footer>Remove Footer.

Than set the page size in Page Layout>Size>More Paper Sizes...

This should get you most of the way there. When it looks the way you want it, Save As...>PDF.

Just select all pages. Then make all footers the sane. So define footer as "link to previous section". Then delete the page number. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/211432

Why so many "sections"? Why mixing A4 and Letter?
