When using the "exam" document class, LaTeX prints "1" for the page number at the bottom of the first page but prints "Page n" for all successive pages where n is the page number. Anyone know how to fix this? I just want the page number to appear at the bottom of each page.

  • Welcome to TeX.SX! Please add a minimal working example (MWE) that illustrates your problem. It will be much easier for us to reproduce your situation and find out what the issue is when we see compilable code, starting with \documentclass{...} and ending with \end{document}.

The footer can be redefined with the \footer{...}{...}{...} command in the preamble.

\documentclass{exam}

\usepackage{lipsum}
\footer{}{\thepage}{}

\begin{document}
\title{A title}
\author{A. Author}

\maketitle

\section{Section One}

\begin{questions}
  \question
  What if there were no air?

\end{questions}

\lipsum[1-20]

\end{document}

  • This doesn't fix my problem - I want the footer on EVERY page to be JUST the page number. For instance, the footer on page 34 should just read "34".
