General ⇒ Pagenumbers

[hormiga123]

A while ago I have posted a problem with page numbers and still had not solved the issue and now i cannot find the old post...

I would like
- my first page not to have a page number
- have the TOC pages numbered in Roman
- have the rest numbered in Arabic
- have the page numbers centered, and within hyphens, e.g. -1-
- in the TOC i do not want the hyphens to appear

So far i'm working with:

% On the first page:
\thispagestyle{empty}
%First of the TOC pages:
\pagestyle{myheadings}\pagenumbering{Roman}
%first page of the content part:
\pagestyle{myheadings} \pagenumbering{arabic}

However, I still have not figured out how
1) center the page numbers
2) ad hyphens
3) not have the dashes appear in the TOC

Thanks!

Just log in and go to the User Control Panel (upper right corner of the page).

All these questions are answered by taking a look at the fancyhdr package.
