Description halmai 2005-01-28 19:22:48 UTC 
Let's suppose that I have a 20 page long document as printed material. I would
like to print three additional pages with page numbers 21, 22, and 23. The help
tip said that inserting a manual break with a not-[None] style and defining the
"Change page number" can do this (see Insert -> Manual break menupoint). Yes, it
works fine, I will get a 4 pages document starting by an empty one. These pages
will have the page numbers 1, 21, 22 and 23 respectively. 

This is almost perfect but I would like to remove the empty page from there. How
can I create a document which starts with a page number which is greater than 1? 

I think this feature is missing from OOo but maybe I just was not able to find it.

I have tried several works around but they were too compilcated for such an
every-day task. That is why I think there should be an easier way to solve my
problem.

Dear Regina,

thanks for Your help. Yes, it really does what I want. The problem was that it
was not intuitive enough for me to operate with this menupoint. Maybe others
will find it hardly too. 

Anyway, now I know what to do, thanks again! :)
