MS Office Forum / Word / Numbering / June 2006odd line numbers
Hi, I want to show only the odd line numbers ¿How can I do that? I can do it with 2, 4, 6, 8.... but not with 1, 3, 5... that is what I need. Thank you Current versions of Word do not offer any way to do what you need.  SignatureSuzanne S.

Also, when I said "do not offer any way to do what you need," I should have qualified that as meaning that Word does not offer any built-in, automatic way to do it. It could be done with a text box anchored to the header containing line numbers, but (a) they won't be accurate unless the line spacing is entirely uniform and unbroken, and (b) they'll restart on every page. For those reasons, I don't consider this a viable option. SignatureSuzanne S.
