Adding numbers to your pages is no longer frustrating or time consuming. Any Admin/Yearbook Advisor who has access to the Yearbook Ladder can conveniently add numbers to their pages using simple or advanced options. 

Go to the “manage” tab and click on “manage ladder” to find the Page Numbering button in the top left corner to get started.

Turn on page numbering by changing the drop-down selection to Page Numbering On. After you activate the Page Numbering feature, there are two different tab options: Simple Page Numbering and Advanced Numbering.  Let’s take a closer look at each tab and how it functions as it interacts with your yearbook ladder.

Simple Page Numbering

The Simple mode will add black page numbers starting at page 1 to the end of the yearbook, either on the outside corners or bottom center of your yearbook. You will see a preview of your current first page with each numbering option. Once you make your selection by selecting the circle to the right of the chosen preview, click the button Save Changes.

Update Advanced Numbering

This mode is for more advanced options to add numbers to your pages, where you can specify the size, color, location and starting page number. Choose from the following options:

Select Page to Edit: You can choose to edit all pages or one in particular that needs a different color in order for the page number to be seen. You can also nudge the current default position of the page number horizontally and vertically.

Start Numbering on Page: Choose the page you want the number to start on.

First Page Number: Choose the beginning number which will appear on your first page.

Font Type: You have three available font options:

• Arial
• Times New Roman
• Comic Sans MS

Page Numbering Position: Change the position in which the page number appears

• Center
• Outside

Font Size: Minimum point size is 8pt; Maximum point size 24pt.

Vertical Position:  Adjust your page number’s position vertically in smaller increments, if needed.

• Highest
• Higher
• Normal (Default)
• Lower
• Lowest

Font Color: Choose a color to make the number visible against the page design and background.

• Black
• White
• Red
• Green
• Blue

Horizontal Position: Adjust your page number’s position horizontally in smaller increments, if needed.

• More Left
• Left
• Normal (Default)

Note: The options to change the Horizontal and Vertical positions only become active when editing a single page.

After customizing your page numbers and saving your changes, you can return to the page ladder by clicking the button Back To Ladder. Click on a page from the ladder for a quick preview of how your page number will appear. Note: Your page numbers can only be viewed from the Yearbook Ladder. If you are using the EDOnext software you will not be able to preview the page numbers. Page Numbering is a separate feature from the EDOnext page designer.
