Writing a Research Paper with Google Docs

I decided to use Google Docs for writing a research report for school. Overall, it was very straightforward. But there were two major issues I had in the beginning:
  1. Changing the document to use double spacing
  2. Adding auto incrementing page numbers
Thankfully, I found an answer to both.

Double spacing
Format >> Document Settings >> Line spacing >> double spaced


Adding page numbers (Thanks to Google System)
Copy and paste the following HTML code in the header (or footer) of the document:
<div style="text-align: right;" class="google_header">Page <span class="google_pagenumber">1</span> of <span class="google_pagecount">1</span></div>
