Hello,
as my thesis requires roman numerals for the front matter and arabic
numerals for the main matter I would like the resulting PDF file to display
always the right number as on the printed paper. Right now it displays
something like
i --> 1
ii --> 2 etc.
1 --> 7
2 --> 8 etc.
as the PDF viewer simply counts from the first to the last page. However, I
have seen already LaTeX-PDF-Files that display always the same page number
as is being printed. How can I achieve that in LyX 1.5.5 and XeTeX on latest
MacTeX?
Thanks for any help,
Maksi
Apparently you are not currently using the hyperref package in the
document. Try adding \usepackage{hyperref} to the preamble. The
hyperref option pdfpagelabels=true (which is the default setting) will
induce Acrobat Reader (and hopefully other readers) to display something
like "ii (2 of 938)" as the page number.
