okay so if you're using Google Docs and
you want to put page numbers on your
document but you don't necessarily want
them to go in order starting at page one
and through the entire document we're
going to go over how to control that
right now by section so the first thing
that you want to do is go up to you and
make sure that show section breaks is
checked that way you're going to be able
to see what you're doing and now let's
talk about what we want to do here so in
this document we're going to say the
first sections two pages so you have the
title page and you have copyright you
just want a page number on the copyright
and then down and the body of the
document you want to start over you want
page 1 right here and go all the way
through
let me page down here a little bit to
the end of the document and then you
don't want a page number on work cited
all right so let's set this up that way
let's go up to the top let's go up to
the top this is my second page and we're
going to insert a section break so we're
going to do section break next page
these are the ones that seem to work
don't use section break continuous is
just my recommendation unless you can
figure out what it's doing section break
the next page and then it puts in an
empty page because I already had page
breaks in this document just delete that
it'll still work we're gonna come up
take a look at what happens so this is
the second page in document this is
where I put in the section break let's
go up put in page numbers for this first
section left click on options in left
click on page numbers and because I put
in section breaks you get this extra
section at the top of page numbers that
it's asking you what is section to apply
it to if you don't have section breaks
you're not going to see that part so you
can't do this so right now we're in
section 1 this is asking us we can still
do the whole document if you have
section breaks in there you can just
ignore them but we want to do first just
this section and let's say we don't want
to show a 1 on the first page because
that's our title page right we want that
blank but we want it to start at 1
meaning that the first page will have a
1 which won't be able see it and then it
will
- so let's left click on apply' and we
don't have a one on the first page
that's good and our second page in the
section has a - so we're good so far you
can see the section break and will come
down and it gave a 3-2 this next section
so what we're going to do is we're going
to left click on link to previous it'll
get rid of that three so it allows you
to start over
left click and we'll go to page numbers
again and now this box is smart enough
to know that we're in the second section
so it says this section section two and
let's just put them in the header again
but in this case we want to show the
page number on the first page this is
just the regular body of the document
and we want to start at one left click
on apply and there we go so there's a
one now if you wanted this to the right
like the other ones you just change the
alignment left click on that Cavill
wherever you want I'm going to scroll
down so expect a two here so that's good
and we'll keep on going so we have
numbered the beginning one two although
we didn't show the one now we have one
through four and then we've said and
then somehow this section break got out
of here so I'm going to attic and insert
break section break next page delete the
blank page that it makes and on this
work cited page when we left click in
this header as we can see now it's
section three we don't want to link it
to previous so we'll uncheck that and it
just gets rid of the page number in that
case so this is what we wanted no page
number on the end so next we'll go over
how to build a dynamic table of contents
based on the content in your document so
as you update things the table of
contents stays up to date so I'll see
you in that video
