I started out making in my book in separate files and then, using a
program called CreatePDF, generated PDF files of each section which
gathered them all into one PDF file. For printing at home and making
e-books, this worked just fine, but when I sent it to Lulu Press, they
rejected the PDF file because it didn't embed all the fonts and I was
never able to get it to do that, so I had to figure out the OOo method
for page numbering and then use OOo's PDF export facility. I opted for
the master document method, but it is possible to do it all in one file.
After saying this, let me make the disclaimer that I did all this before
AOO 3.4.1 so I am only assuming that it is still possible.

Hello,
I'm finalizing my eBook manuscript on Writer. The only thing left to
do is set up Roman numeral page numbers for the first three pages
(title page, about the author and table of contents) - or possibly
only give the about the author and table of contents pages Roman
numerals - and then Arabic numerals for the rest. Also, the Arabic
numerals must start with 1.
As a second-best solution, I'm willing to have the first three pages
have no page numbers at all, as long as the rest have Arabic page
numbers starting with 1.
I've struggled with it and read over the relevant Help file more times
than I care to count. Any help you can offer would be much
appreciated. Thank you very kindly!

An obvious work-around for the second-best solution: Make the first 3 pages
a separate file without page numbers. Or just write the Roman numbers at
the
bottom of each page, using center justification. Then the remainder will be
its
own file with page numbers starting at 1. Now you can have most of the
"best"
solution. Two files doesn't sound like all that big a deal.

Hi Doug,
Actually, I'd've already submitted them in four separate files - thing
is, the recipient strongly prefers the manuscript in one file only.
Anything you can suggest under that constraint would really help.
Thank you for your courtesy!
