On Sun, 22 Dec 2024 15:19:05 -0700, Don YI just did a test with Libre Office Writer. I created a document in which the first three pages use a page style with roman numerals, and the next three pages use another style with arabic numerals. I added a table of contents, which automatically displays correctly the page numbers in both forms. I then export as PDF. The document displays exactly as it should, but page 1 is numbered by the PDF viewer as 4 oin the page counter. Clicking on the table of contents, on the line for page 1 goes correctly to page 1, although the pdf shows page 4.

If your page numbering is *within* the document (e.g., a header of your
own creation), then it is entirely up to you what form it takes, where it
is placed, when it appears, etc. (e.g., often the first page of a chapter
has no visible page number)

The PDF format only deals with ordinality when it comes to page numbers.
>Annoying.>
Use the tool upstream of your PDF distiller to impose whatever numbering
scheme you want. E.g., I never label the first page of a document,
use "lowercase" roman numerals for front matter, <chapter>-<page> for
body pages (and <chapter>-<figure> as well as <chapter>-<table> for
their corresponding materials) and INDEX-<page> for the index.

[Though I've never made a document of more than ~600 pages so it's easy
to find thumbnails of chapter starts and offset from there]
even if I have to do it manually on a per-page basis.
The pdf document is intended as a replica of existing hard copy,
so those original numbers/roman numerals can't change.
