Page Numbering
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 to advanced options. Go to your account's yearbook ladder to find the Page Numbering button to get started.
When you activate the Page Numbering feature; there are two different tab options: Simple Page Numbering and Advanced Page 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 centre of your yearbook. You will see a preview of your current first page. Once you make your selection click the button, Turn on Page Numbers.
Advanced Page Numbering
For more advanced options to adding numbers to your pages 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 colour in order for the page number to be seen. You can also nudge the current default position of the page number horizontally and vertically.

After customising 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 EDOnline 7.0 software you will not be able to preview the page numbers. Page Numbering is a separate feature from the EDOnline page designer.
Note: You can turn off page numbering at any time by selecting Yes from the drop down menu and clicking Turn off Page Numbers. The page numbers will only be viewable on your downloaded PDF preview after your yearbook is approved for production.
