Page Layout ⇒ Restarting Page Numbers after Abstract

[ndussex]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to LyX and I'm having issues with page numbering when using an "Abstract" section in a report document class. Basically my title is numbered correctly (page 1) but the following abstract has no page number, then the main text starts again with page number 1.

How can I fix this to have the right numbers without this gap?
Much appreciated

Nic

Hi,

Use the following two lines (with comments) to add a page number to the abstract and start the following chapter from any page number.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{report}
\usepackage{blindtext}
\begin{document}
\begin{abstract}
\thispagestyle{plain} % Adds page number to abstract
\blindtext
\end{abstract}
\setcounter{page}{2} % Sets page counter to 2
\chapter{Introduction}
\blindtext
\end{document}
