I hope this is the proper forum for this sort thing. An option to have the automatic page numbering start at a number other than 1 would be useful feature for those writing long documents like, say, a novel or an epic poem.
Such writing projects are easier to manage if they're broken up into smaller chapters. The problem is in having one chapter "inherit" a previous chapter's numbering scheme. If Chapter 1 ends on page 24, Chapter 2 should begin on page 25, rather than page 1. I see no option to do this automatically in Abiword.
