There are provisions to start numbering on second page.
My second page is a Table of Contents and I want to start
numbering on the 3 page. I also wish to label the bottom
of the Table of Contents i. Can I do both through
footnotes?
Footnotes don't seem like a good idea for something that should appear
on every page. And you want page numbering on page 2 (that's what the
"i" is).
The preferred approach is to have new page section breaks between page
1 and the TOC (page 2) and between the TOC and the text (page 3). In
each of the new sections, you can specify a starting page number.
(Your TOC can be a second page 1.) In the footer for each new
section, disconnect from the previous footer (undo "same as previous")
and insert the page number with appropriate formatting (e.g., roman
numerals for the TOC).
An alternate approach is to have a common footer with a complex {if}
field code like:
{IF {PAGE}>=3
{= {PAGE} - 2}
{IF {PAGE}=2
{= {PAGE\ROMAN} - 1}
" "
}
}
Each pair of braces must be created using ctrl-F9.
