How to Add an Appendix to a Word Document
Instructions
1. Type the heading for your appendix after the main body of the document. Place the cursor in front of the first word of this heading. On the menu bar select Insert, then Break, then Section Break (Next Page). Your appendix will now be in a separate section.
2. Click anywhere in the document’s appendix. On the menu bar click Insert, then Page Numbers. A box entitled "Page Numbers" will appear.
3. Use the Position drop-down box to select whether you want the page numbers to appear on the top (header) or bottom (footer) of the appendix’s pages. Use the Alignment drop-down box to select whether you want your page numbers to appear on the left or right or in the center of the appendix’s pages.
4. Click the Format button within the Page Numbers box. Select the desired numbering format (1, 2, 3…; i, ii, iii…; etc.). Under the "Page numbering" section click the "Start at" option. If you want the appendix to be numbered separately, enter the number 1.
5. Type the body of your appendix as desired. If creating a list, you may wish to select Format, then Bullets and Numbering.
6. Repeat the entire process if your work requires more than one appendix section.
