Why Page Numbers, You Ask?

Plus, it's like giving your document a secret identity. No more 'Document1.docx', it's 'Page 1, 2, 3...' now!
Let's Get Our Hands Dirty
First things first, you've gotta insert those numbers. In Word, it's as easy as pie. Click on the Insert tab, then Page Numbers. Boom! You've just given your doc its first number. But wait, there's more!
