On paper tests, you may want the test header or footer to include automatic page numbering or the date. Double-click a test header or footer to open the Header & Footer Editor, or select "Header-Footer Editor" from the Tools menu
Place the cursor at the location where you want the page number to appear and select "Page Numbers" from the Insert menu. A "#" placeholder appears while you are editing, but is replaced by consecutive page numbers when you close the Header & Footer Editor.
The same procedure can be used to insert page numbers in headers and footers for printed testbanks.
Although page numbers are designed to be inserted in headers and footers, it is possible to insert them in other editable locations on a test. When you insert a page number, the "#" placeholder appears, but then changes to the appropriate page number when you click outside the edit field. Page numbers inserted in this manner do not carry over to the same locations on other pages.
If you choose to print multiple forms of a test, you can distinguish one form from another by inserting the page number in either a header or footer. A different letter of the alphabet will print as part of the page number for each form of the test. For example, if you insert the page number in the Page 1 Footer, the first form of the test will use A-1, A-2, and so on, the second form of the test will use B-1, B-2, and so on.
Place the cursor at the location where you want the date to appear and select "Date" from the Insert menu. The date appears in the format MM/DD/YYYY. If the date is in the page 1 header or footer, it appears only on the first page of the test. If the date is in the page 2 header or footer, it will appear in the same location on every page of your test after the first page.
The same procedure can be used to insert the date in headers and footers for printed testbanks.
Note: The date is obtained from your computer system whenever you open or print the test and may change from the date you see when you create the test.
