fix page numbers

The Album Creation wizard creates inappropriate footers and page numbers for a bound book. In a bound album, the title pagea right-hand pageis really the book's first page, but the wizard doesn't number it. The wizard starts numbering with 1 on the first left-hand page. Odd numbers wind up on left-hand pages, evens on the right. Footers always appear in the lower-left corner of a page, page numbers in the lower-right corner. In a professionally designed book, on left-hand pages the numbers are even and appear in the lower-left corner. You can't edit the default page numbers in the Album Creation wizard, but you can add your own as additional text. You must then remove the default numbers.
