To have no numbers on the first two pages, with numbers starting on the third
page, you need to use page styles. I'll assume you have some knowledge of page
styles; if not, there is good documentation describing how to use page styles
in the Users' Manual, and in OOoAuthors.
Create a style that will be used for the first two pages. Apply this style to
the first page and then to the second page. At the bottom of the second page,
select Insert > Manual Break > Page Break, and for Styles, select Default (or
some other style that is different from that you used for the first two pages).
Then check the box that says Change Page Number, and for the number, select 1.
Now create a footer, but only for the Default page style: Insert > Footer >
Default
Now all that is left is inserting the page number in the footer. Click in the
footer field, and select Insert > Fields > Page Number.
That should do it.

How do I get my document to print page numbers, starting on the third page,
but starting with the number one instead of three and incrementing from there?
Thanks
