Frequently asked questions
Can I start numbering at a number other than 1?
Yes. Set the first number, for example 5 if this file continues from an earlier part.
Will numbers cover my content?
Numbers sit inside the page margin area. If your pages have content right to the edge, choose a different position.
Limits and privacy
