Reply #4: For the page number issue, you are on the right track.

1. Make sure you are doing page numbers as "footers" and inserting the page numbers in an automated way. Do NOT manually type each number at the bottom of the page. That's for losers, and each edit you do will potentially mess up the numbering for the rest of the entire document.
2. For rotated text, insert a text box into the footer.
3. Select page number (to enter that field into the text box).
4. go to format --> text direction. Select what you need.
5. Make sure each "section" of the document (a landscaped section, or a portrait section) begins with a "Section break" - to do that, go to insert section break.
6. Once you have the page number in the footer, you can go to format page number, and tell it whether you want it to continue numbering from the previous section, or start fresh, or start from a specific number.


Don't think in terms of moving "pages" - because pages just flow from one page to another, and edits will change that - it's not like an acrobat document in that way. Highlight and drag figures and put them where you want them. The page numbers if you did them in the automated way - the right way - will fix themselves with no work on your part.
