If you don’t want page numbers after all, click Remove Page Numbers at the bottom of the gallery.

To show the document title, author’s name, or some other text with the page number, or to hide the page number on the first page, start by using Insert > Header & Footer instead of Insert > Page Numbers. For more info, see Add page numbers to headers or footers.

For more options—if, for example you want different page numbering in different sections—edit the document in Word instead of editing it in Word for the web. If you don’t have Word, you can try or buy it now.
