I want chapter headings to be automatically numbered as a list. Let's say that's 'Chapter heading' style. When I then type text in another style called 'body', I then write another chapter heading in the 'Chapter heading' style but the list numbering simply doesn't happen. Is it possible to do this?

Custom Headers and Footers in Pages I am formatting my manuscript using Pages. I have been able to customize the Headers so that my name (as author) appears on each left hand page (even) and the book title appears on each right hand page (odd). However, having "different headers" also affects the footers so I am only getting page numbers showing in the footer on the odd pages. And that's odd! How do I get continuous page numbers throughout this section of the manuscript document but maintain the two different headers? In other words, how can I control Headers separate from Footers?

Pages limit in paragraph numbering I lost a lot of time to do something that seems absolutely simple. Having a style for headings with automatically incremented paragraph numbers. Maybe that this feature is really lacking in Pages or just am I unable to find it? Thanks

How to include Bulleted Lists as a Style in Pages This has bugged me for many years of regular Pages use. I want to create a Style called Body Bullet which once set would include the Bullet points at the beginning of the paragraph without me having to reset them every time. At the moment I can create the style, but when selecting it for another paragraph the Bullet points are not included, only the other aspects of the text. Is there a way to do this?

Try this:

After you select the list format, either update the paragraph style or create a new paragraph style.

I don't have the version of Pages that you have, so I can't test this for you.

Hi swaledaleram,

You can check out the user guide for using Pages here:

Pages User Guide for Mac

That should help you find different options for managing your document.

Best of luck.
