Hello,
Configuration: Windows XP / Chrome 49.0.2623.112Hello, I created a draft for a personal book in Word. I have page numbers that are not displaying. It's normal for the blank pages, but not for the full pages. What should I do? The bug is occurring on page 22 and the page numbers are not showing up until page 26.

Hello Marie,
we often say that "the bug is often/alway between the keyboard and the chair";-)
You probably have section breaks between the numbered pages and the unnumbered ones. Show the formatting marks to see them (in the [Home] tab, click on the ¶ icon). Apparently, you would have one at the end of page 21 and one at the end of page 25.
If the section breaks are not needed, you can delete them and replace them with simple page breaks.
If you need to keep them, double-click in the footer of an unnumbered page (page 22, if I understood correctly), and click on the "Link to Previous" command in the [Design] tab under the [Header and Footer Tools] tab.
