From: David DC David on 30 Nov 2009 23:35 Thanks for the tip, it left the first page number off as stated. Is there a way to remove the second page number also, so page number 3 begins the number dispalayed but still counts all the pages within the document? e.g. page 3 begins with 3 and pages 1 & 2 are blank.

From: Jing Jing on 14 Dec 2009 20:31 Yes. The easier to way to do is to first uncheck "different first page", and then use page break/ section break. After having the first number on both the cover page and first page, you choose to click enable/ check "different first page", so you can remove the number on the cover page and keep the first number on your first page. Hopefully, this is clear enough. I did it by using this way. :)

Why in the world would you go to that much trouble when "Different first page" already achieves what you want? -- Suzanne S.
