Hello,

I am writing my masters paper in openoffice 2.0.2 and I am having difficulty
in formatting the pagination required for publication. I need to paginate
everything previous to the first page of text in roman numerals and
everything following in arabic numerals. I have been able to apply a
formatting variable to get everything after and including the first page of
text in arabic numerals, but I can't seem to find a way to get the first
pages formatted in roman without applying roman numerals to the headings in
the whole text.

The other related problem I have is finding a way to get the table of
contents function to recognize and list the page numbers as I want them to
appear. After getting openoffice to paginate my text in arabic numerals I
updated the table of contents and it still numbers all of my pages beginning
with 1 etc. So basically my first page of text now says page 1, while the
table of contents says it starts on page 5.

I have been reading the help pages and trying to figure this out, but I am
wasting a lot of time I should be spending on editing! Please, help me!

Thanks,
Katie
