Inserting/Printing page numbers X of Y in footer

Guest

In the footer I used "Insert Auto Text" and clicked on X of Y. When I email
to a client the view on screen is correct as Page 1 of 5, 2 of 5 etc. but
when the client sends to print, it prints as Page 1 of 1, 2 of 2 etc. I sent
4 documents - one works correctly the other 3 are incorrect. I deleted all
footers and reinserted - didn't work. I copied the footer from the one that
was working and inserted into one that wasn't working - didn't work. Any
suggestions please?

The problem is with your client's system rather than your document.

There is a bug in Word that is different in different versions (including
different SRs).
See http://www.addbalance.com/word/pagexofy.htm or
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/AppErrors/PageXofY.htm for information on Page
X of Y problems. You may also want to take a look at:
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumbering.htm. If it applies
you may also want to look at
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Numbering/PageNumber0.htm.
