Is there any way to restart page numbering? I have 6 pages of front matter before the book proper begins. So the first page is page 7, and I want it to be page 1.
Restarting auto-numbering streams:
<$rst>
Place <$rst> immediately before any of the auto-numbering tags to restart the numbering. So, for instance, “<$w>, <$w>, <$w>, <$rst><$w>, <$w>” would become “one, two, three, one, two” in the compiled text.
Hope this will point you in “write” direction.
