Frequently asked questions

Can I use a “Page X of Y” format?

Yes. Use {n} for the page number and {N} for the total — for example “Page {n} of {N}”.

Can numbering start at a number other than 1?

Yes. Set any starting number — useful when a cover page shouldn't count.

Where can the numbers appear?

Six positions: top or bottom, aligned left, center, or right.
