How do I make my first page a cover or title page and start page numbering (Page 1) on the second page of my document?
- Open a new Writer document.
- Choose Insert > Manual Break from the menu bar.
- Select the Page break button in the dialog box.
- From the drop-down list, select Default.
- Select the Change page number option in the checkbox.
- Click the up or down arrows as necessary until “1” appears.
- Click OK.
The document now has 2 pages, and the cursor is in the second page. If the cursor is not in the second page, click in the second page so that it is.
- Choose Insert > Footer > Default from the menu bar. (Or Insert > Header > Default, depending on where you want your page number to appear).
- To insert the page number, Choose Insert > Fields > Page Numbers. A number '1' should appear on the second page of the file.
For information about using page styles, see Chapter 6, Introduction to Styles in the Writer Guide.
