Page numbering and blank pages

Post by niles »

Hi

Please take a look at this MWE

Code: Select all

\documentclass[10pt, a4paper]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}    
\usepackage[ansinew]{inputenc}
\usepackage{pdfpages}

\begin{document}

%\includepdf[]{frontpage.pdf}
\tableofcontents
\clearpage
\section{First section}

\end{document}
First I include an external frontpage. Then what I wish is there to be a blank page, then the ToC with the page number "i". Then there should be a page with number "ii", and after this "\section{First section}" should come with page number 1.

Is there a smart way of doing this?

Best regards,
Niles.
