Numbering pages

The page numbers on the document pages do not always match the page numbers that

appear below the page thumbnails and in the status bar. Pages are numbered with integers,

starting with page 1 for the first page of the document. Because some Adobe PDF

documents may contain front matter, such as a copyright page and table of contents, their

body pages may not follow the numbering shown in the status bar.

different numbering style for groups of pages, such as 1, 2, 3, or i, ii, iii, or a, b, c. You

can also customize the numbering system by adding a prefix. For example, the numbering

for chapter 1 could be 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, and so on, and for chapter 2, it could be 2-1, 2-2, 2-3,
