It shouldn’t take 400 steps to format page numbers.
I haven’t even begun to edit the text, the actual thing that matters, I’m just wasting time formatting because Microshaft makes it so fucking difficult.
“Oh, you want odd numbers on the right and even numbers on the left? Okay, let’s start with 9 even though it’s the 13th page in total and the first page in this section. Oh, you want it to start with page 1? Okay, let’s have all the even numbers work and make all the odd numbers except 1 disappear. Oh, you don’t want to link to the previous section? Let’s start with number viii in the previous section and if you delete it all the even numbers will delete even though they are in different sections and theoretically each section can have its own independent formatting.”
Get fucked, Microshaft.
