Description mkol 2004-12-27 19:09:10 UTC 
OpenOffice.org Word Processor does not provide an easier method for applying 
multiple page numbering schemes in a single documents.

Why multiple page numbering schemes are required in a single document?
Multiple page numbering schemes may be required in a single document, when a 
user is composing a large document e.g. A Text Book.

A Text Book usually contains multiple sections with entirely different page 
numbers e.g.-
Preface with page numbers i, ii, iii, iv
Main Text book with page numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

Can we have a built in feature in OpenOffice.org to accomplish the above task?

Create a page style with i, ii, iii (tab 'page' part 'format') and another page
style with 1, 2, 3. Then use a manual page break between the parts via Insert ->
Manual Break. Select the style there and change the page number to 1.

If this doesn't solves your problem, please have a look at issue 33754, 32894 or
12138. Is your problem mentioned there? If not, please describe exactly, what
behavior you are missing.
