Forcing, suppressing, and stopping page numbers
By forcing a page number, you can insert a new page or make sure that a certain page in a document always has an odd or even page number. In addition, you can suppress page numbering on one page in a document. You can also stop the page numbers so that they are removed from the entire document.
