RE: PDF page numbering

[Cindy Hudson <chudson -at- ECS-INC -dot- com>]

Actually, you don't have to get rid of the roman numerals. Just tell Acrobat
to account for them using the Number Pages option on the Document menu. You
can use it to set page ranges and determine the style of numbering.

HTH,

Subject: PDF page numbering


We've recently switched our manuals to
being online-only. One of the vestigages
of the books is roman numerals for the
title and TOC. This is problematic for
the PDFs, though, because the viewer
numbers consecutively from the title
page on.

So, we're thinking of getting rid of
roman numerals and calling the title
page one so that the book page numbers
match the Acrobat reader's numbering.

My question is: does anyone have a
better idea?  We're concerned because
this proposed style of numbering goes
against every normal print convention.

Thanks,
