thanks - not sure if this is the place- but am desperate - I’m using Linux Mint Office Libre 5 (I know - dinosaur) and can’t find a way to number my pages in document in footer so that the first 5 pages are blank, but page 6 begins as number 1 (like most books after title pages and dedications, etc.) . Have tried any number of suggestions but think with no joy.
Closing.
This is a misdirected support request that is not at all about Ubuntu.
There’s a whole section about page numbers on the LibreOffice help site.
