in Latex - Mode type

\pagenumbering{roman}                           (for small letters "xiv")

or 

\pagenumbering{Roman}                           (for large letters "XIV")

or

\pagenumbering{arabic}                          (for numbers}

Remember that this command restarts pagenumbering (it's what you want, I
assume). So if you want to have your pagenumbering continued, you will have
to set the pagecounter with the "setcounter" command.
