FAQ

Can I leave the cover without a number?

Yes. Choose "Skip the first pages" and enter 1: numbering starts on page 2 with the number 1.

What is the 10 in "1 / 10"?

The last number printed. When pages are skipped, only the numbered pages are counted.

Can I write my own format?

Yes. Choose "Custom" and type, for example, Page {n} / {total}. Only basic Latin letters, digits and symbols can be used, because the numbers are written as real text with the standard PDF fonts.
