To have Adobe® PageMaker® automatically number your pages, if the
template isn't used, place a page number marker on the Master page of
the document.
Go to the Master Pages by clicking on the page icons with the L and R on them at the bottom left corner of the screen.
Using the Text tool, draw a text block in the general area for the page numbers.
On the Mac, press Command+Option+P or in Windows, Ctrl+Alt+P.
Depending on the page you are on, the page marker will show up in the text block, LM on the left page, RM on the right page.
Auto page Number
This text can be formatted like any other text on your pages.
Select the Pointer tool and move the copy block into the correct position.
Click on a page icon to go to a page in your file and the actual page number will appear.
If the page icons do not have the correct page numbers on them, go to the File menu, select Document Setup and change the Starting page # field to the correct starting page number.

Hi there!
Adobe PageMaker Plus 6.5 is for Win2K computers. It is not compatible with Windows 7. I suggest an upgrade of your software to Adobe InDesign, which is compatible with Windows 7.
Hope this helps.
I'm afraid you have a problem. Windows 6.5 doesn't run well on Windows XP, and PageMaker 7.0 can't be installed on Windows Vista at all and there is no patch for it, so most likely, your PageMaker 6.5 won't run on Windows 7. Sorry. :(
I'll research a little more and post if I find anything different, but I'm pretty confident that it won't run.
There is a version of Adobe Acrobat Distiller included with your PageMaker installation disks. Put your installation disk in your CD drive and follow the prompts to install the distiller program.
For those running Windows Vista, you can enable spell checking in Pagemaker 7 by simply turning off the user account control. This control is what pops up every time you attempt to run a program windows Vista isn't familiar with, asking if you really want to run it.
To turn it off, go to Control Panal, select user accounts and forms, select User Account Control, and in the follow up screen delete the checkmark.
Of course, the account control is there to protect you against unauthorized running of spyware and such. Be sure you have good virus protection!
