Hi,
I'm not sure this can be done, but ... going to ask anyway. XP Pro SP3 and Office 2002. Is there a way to reverse the order of pages in a Word document? Last page becomes first, next to last becomes next, and so on. Instead of 1, 2, 3, .... the physical appearance changes to 42, 41, 40 ... 3, 2, 1. I have a Word document which is displayed 'upside down': In other words, the LAST page is page 1, next to last is page 2, and so on down to the first page, which is page 42, but at the bottom of the file; last page shown. This is meant to be an onscreen reference, so printing in reverse order won't suffice; access is going to be onscreen. I made some brief tests as simply cutting/pasting the pages into their correct order but quickly got lost and botched the job; mainly because as soon as you move a page, its page number changes in Word, so without making each page large enough to see and comparing next/following pages, one gets lost pretty quickly. Thought about a macro, move bottom to position 1, bottom to position 2, etc, but I'm not able to get anything to work. I just don't know VBA well enough. Any thoughts or ideas on how to accomplish this? TIA, Twayne |

Word is not a page alyout application so there are no 'pages' as such, but a
continuous document flowed to the page layout settings, as dictated by the current printer driver. What may work for you is to output to a PDF printer driver, such as PrimoPDF (or of course Acrobat) and set the option to 'print' in reverse order. This will produce a document viewable on screen with Adobe Reader that is in reverse page order, retaining the original page numbering. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Twayne" wrote in message ...

Unfortunately though the page numbers weren't part of the document; they only existed in the application that displayed the pages. Cheers, Twayne` "Twayne" wrote in message ...

Hi Twayne,
have you tried using fields in your header like this {={NumPages}-{Page}+1} This should give the desired numbering. Regards, Markus |

If you use any kind of torrents then you must have the fastest speed of the internet because they demand more internet speed than normal. You need to make sure that you are getting the fast speed of the internet if you want to use a torrent site. Here’s this speed test tool that I use to test the speed of my internet ptcl speed test By testing your internet speed you can easily make sure that whether or not you’re able to use the torrent site.

Hi Twayne,
Yes, it is possible to reverse the order of pages in a Word document. Here are the steps to do it:
Now your document should be reversed, with the last page appearing first and the first page appearing last. The page numbers will also be reversed, so the last page will be numbered 1, the second-to-last page will be numbered 2, and so on.
