It’s a real nuisance and I hope this gets fixed, soon. My method: open up the footer (or header if thats where your page number is). I do it slightly differently than the post above that goes through the ribbon menus, but in both methods you have to go through the document to each sections beginning. Then, I add the page numbers again, from scratch. Word starts page numbering over for each new section by default. In draft view, Word shows you exactly where section breaks occur and what kinds of breaks they are. The easiest way to do this is to switch over to the View menu on the Ribbon and then click the Draft button to enter draft view.

So, I was pretty surprised when I kept running into this issue. I’ve been formatting documents since forever, in nearly every word processing program made for PCs. I think I may have found where the bug is. Thanks for the comments and replies, so far.
