I am new to AbiWord and have downloaded the latest
version for Windows, 1.0.4, Millennium Edition. I am
trying to make a document that will print out and look
like a paperback book with page numbers at the top
outside of each page except for the first page of each
chapter. My problem is that I do not understand what
it is that is being set in Page Setup under Margins
and Header. I thought the value I put in would be the
distance from the top of the page to the start of the
header block and that Top Margin was the distance from
the top of the page to the start of the body of the
text with the header ending at that distance. That
does not seem to be the case. I played around and
ended up with Top at 0.61 inches and Header at 0.31
inches to get the page number printed out at the very
top of the page. The Header block has 2 lines in it
when I only need 1. Is there a way to cause the page
numbers to be printed at the very top of the page
where the printer margin is, 0.33 inches, and for the
body of the text to start at 0.53 inches from the top
of the page? The margins I set, Top 0.61 inches and
Header 0.31 inches, are those which would avoid an
error message of margins to large.
