Syncfusion Essential DocIO is a .NET Core Word library used to create, read, and edit Word documents programmatically without Microsoft Word or Interop dependencies. Using this library, you can add multiple page number formats in the Word document in C#.

Steps to add multiple page number formats in the Word document:

Create a new C# .NET Core console application project.
Install the Syncfusion.DocIO.Net.Core NuGet package as a reference to your .NET Core applications from NuGet.org.
Include the following namespace in the Program.cs file:

using Syncfusion.DocIO;
using Syncfusion.DocIO.DLS;

Use the following code example to add multiple page number formats in the Word document:

//Create a new Word document.
using (WordDocument document = new WordDocument())
{
    //Add a section to the document.
    IWSection section = document.AddSection();
    //Add a page number to the document.
    section.PageSetup.PageStartingNumber = 1;
    section.PageSetup.PageNumberStyle = PageNumberStyle.Arabic;
    //Add a footer paragraph to the document.
    IWParagraph paragraph = section.HeadersFooters.Footer.AddParagraph();
    paragraph.ParagraphFormat.Tabs.AddTab(523f, TabJustification.Right, TabLeader.NoLeader);
    //Add a text for the footer paragraph.
    paragraph.AppendText("Copyright Northwind Inc. 2001 - 2015");
    //Add page number field to the document.
    paragraph.AppendText("\tPage ");
    paragraph.AppendField("Page", FieldType.FieldPage);
    //Add a paragraph to a section.
    paragraph = section.AddParagraph();
    //Append the text to the created paragraph.
    paragraph.AppendText("AdventureWorks Cycles, the fictitious company on which the AdventureWorks sample databases are based, is a large, multinational manufacturing company.");
    //Add a section to the document.
    section = document.AddSection();
    section.PageSetup.PageStartingNumber = 1;
    section.PageSetup.RestartPageNumbering = true;
    section.PageSetup.PageNumberStyle = PageNumberStyle.LetterUpper;
    //Add a paragraph to a section.
    paragraph = section.AddParagraph();
    //Append the text to the created paragraph.
    paragraph.AppendText("AdventureWorks Cycles, the fictitious company on which the AdventureWorks sample databases are based, is a large, multinational manufacturing company.");
    //Create a file stream.
    using (FileStream outputFileStream = new FileStream(Path.GetFullPath(@"../../../Sample.docx"), FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite))
    {
        //Save the Word document to the file stream.
        document.Save(outputFileStream, FormatType.Docx);
    }
}
