number is on a master page, it displays the master page prefix. On a document page, the

Changing Numbering and Section Options
You can divide content into sections that are numbered differently. For example, the first
ten pages of a book (the front matter) might use Roman numerals, and the rest of the
book might use Arabic numerals, starting at the eleventh page, which is numbered page 1
in this example. To provide for multiple kinds of page numbering, you can set up named
sections within individual documents, or within several documents in a book.
By default, page numbers in a book are numbered consecutively. Using Numbering &
Section Options, you can restart numbering at a specified page, change the numbering
style, and add prefixes and section marker text to the numbers.
Defining section numbering
Create all of the pages necessary for your document (or all of the documents necessary for
your book), and then use the Pages palette to define ranges of pages as sections.
