Hi, As a user I find it easier when a book is numbered consecutively. That means: 1 is the title page (although the title page does not have a page number displayed).
You can find out easily which application was used to create the PDF. In Acrobat press CTRL + D (or in the File menu click Properties). In the Document Properties dialog click the Description tab. There the application is listed to create the PDF.

When in the PDF, if you were in the front matter, the page number in Acrobat/Reader would display the Roman numerals and Numeric when you were in the rest of the manual, so that the page number in the Reader page navigation toolbar always matched the actual page in the document. For the life of me, I can't figure out how the writer did that (I don't know if the document was created in FM). If I set front matter pages in Roman numerals and Chapter pages in Numeric, then print the book to pdf, I only see consecutive pages in the toolbar (e.g. ii is shown as 2 in the toolbar). Am I trying to do something that you can't do when printing FM to PDF? Tom Beiswenger Manager, Technical & Training Documentation, Project Manager - Inspection Business Emhart Glass Mfg.
