Problem

Symptoms: Customer has created a document that is double spaced and has a header at the top of each page. He wants line numbering to begin on #2 for each page. The line numbering looks fine in view for each page but when the document prints the second page begins on line #1. If you turn the line numbering code off on the first page and on for the second page, it will print correctly. The customer says it doesn't matter what printer he has selected. Solutions: I am assuming that they have a 1-line header. What I did was create a header (every page), typed in my one line of text, and at the end of the line went into Shift-F8, chose 5 for Line Numbering, Y for YES, 4 for Starting Number, and typed in a 2. That way, at the beginning of every page, line numbering is turned on (again) in the header, with the starting number of 2. I printed out two pages, and they both started at 2 and double spaced just fine. (Testing was done on a Series II.)
