commit 97b5cfc95aef0f2a94a1354142062cd86c0df58d
Author: G. Branden Robinson <[email protected]>

[ms]: Use "T-1" as cover page number in PDF.
* tmac/s.tmac (RP): When formatting with PDF features, assign the cover
page a page number starting with "T-" to avoid collision with page 1
of the main matter. This is a quality-of-life improvement when using
PDF viewer applications, and the sequence "T-1", "T-2", ..., appears
to be the convention in the PDF world for numbering pages prior to
front matter numbered with lowercase Roman numerals.
