PAGE NUMBERS

[Pascho]

Why can't I start the page numbering the way I want in the Section Manager. This field is black and nothing can be entered here. The page numbering now starts with my cover page while I want to start with page 4. I can't get it done. The help function offers no solution at all, it doesn't work that way. Hopefully soon a working system of page numbering or a good explanation about the steps to follow.

Hi Pascho,

If I understand correctly, you just want to set your second section to restart page numbering at 1, and then have all subsequent sections continue from that point, similar to attached?

Thanks

Hi Jon P
Thanks to the example that you included in your response, I saw the section that I had overlooked and turned out to be the missing link. After correction, the numbering is as it should be. Thanks for this eye opener.

Hi Jon.  Hopefully your explanation and the accompanying screenshot will make it into the official Publisher Help  when the release version is ready.  I fiddled and fiddled to work this out, and I’ll bet lots of others did too.   It is such a slick operation, when we know how!!!
