General ⇒ appendix numbering

[joaquim]

hi,
I want to number the appendix in my thesis using Roman numerals
(e.g., “Appendix II”) instead of capital letters (e.g., “Appendix B”).
Thanks in advance for your help.

It's a little hard to answer a question like this with so little context, and so little knowledge about your document, e.g., what document class you're using, what commands you're using for the appendices, etc.

But there's a good chance that if, for example, that if you're using the \appendix command and your appendices are treated as chapters, right after the \appendix command you could try:

\renewcommand{\thechapter}{\Roman{chapter}}

But if that doesn't work, try posting a minimal working example per board rules.

thank you for the solution.
