Consistency in presenting the document's page numbers will help make navigating the document more predictable and understandable.Īs an example, if /PageLabels has not been provided to describe the page number formatting, the page numbering scheme will not be reflected in the Page Navigation toolbar in Adobe Acrobat Pro or Reader. Similarly, appendices may begin with page number 1 plus a prefix of the appendix letter (e.g., "A-1").Īuthors should make sure that the page numbering of their converted documents is reflected in any page number displays in their user agent. The main content, starting on the page numbered 1, may actually be the fifth or sixth page in the document. Commonly, front matter is numbered with lowercase Roman numerals. Many documents use specific page number formats within a document. The page number format is specified by the /PageLabels entry in the Document Catalog. For example, Adobe Acrobat Pro and Reader display page numbers in the Page Navigation toolbar. The objective of this technique is to help users locate themselves in a document by ensuring that the page numbering displayed in the PDF viewer page controls has the same page numbering as the document.
