Page numbering = PDF numbering counter

[kootoo_fr]

Hello,

I'm badly in need of help...

I have a pdf cover and a book text which pages are numbered from 1 to x p.

I inserted the cover before the first page, but I don't know how I can get my book page numbering equal to the PDF page numbering counter.

I was thinking of creating sections in my PDF, as I would do with Quark Xpress, In Design or Word... but I can't find out how to do it !

Any idea ?

Thanks

Nicolas

Acrobat provides a 'page numbering' facility that may help.

Using Acrobat Professional - open the Page panel
(View > Navigation Panels > Pages)
Now, open the Options menu (the drop-down associated with the "cogwheel icon" in Acrobat 9's Pages panel).

Select "Number Pages".
The Page Numbering dialog permits assigning different page numbering styles.
These may be given a prefix.
Sections of pages can have different styles.
The value (1, 2, etc) for the start page of a designated section can be given.
Configuration can be assigned to all pages, selected pages (as selected in the Pages panel's page thumbnails) or to a specified range.

Review Acrobat Help for more details.

Be well...
