Trouble with page numbering

Post by Illuminati »

Hey!

I have a really simple problem, but I can't seem to find the solution.

I want my LaTeX document to start the first page with a given number. For instance 5.
If a normal document would have 4 pages, it would have the page numbers 1,2,3 and 4, but I want it to be 5,6,7 and 8 or 11,12,13,14

Hope this is possible with LaTeX.

Thanks,
Dan

Just after I found this forum I found a article with what I needed.

Code: Select all

\setcounter{page}{5}

to start at page 5.


But I am glad I found this forum, now I have a resource place to look for tips regarding LaTeX :D
