Kotz) Newsgroups: comp.text Subject: Page number on page 1 Keywords: getting rid of it, LATEX Message-ID: <12027@duke.cs.duke.edu> Date: 14 Jul 88 21:51:00 GMT Sender: news@duke.cs.duke.edu Lines: 18 I am using the article document style of LATEX. I do not want the page number '1' printed at the bottom of the first page, which has a \maketitle and an abstract environment on it. (Why? because the next page is a table of contents, with pages numbered i, ii, ... and it looks silly). No matter what I do, LaTeX insists on putting in that page number. I have tried \pagestyle{empty} at multiple places throughout the first page and before the \begin{document}, I have tried \pagestyle{headings} and \pagestyle{myheadings}. None of these change the way LaTeX does the first page. Any simple answers?
