Okay, I wrote a book. I'm having a problem adding page numbers to the document. I know how, but my first 4 pages are just the openings and credits etc. I want to know if there is a way to start the numbers at 1 when really it's page 5? PLEASE help me. :)

At the bottom of p4, insert a next page section break.
Go to p5 and double click in the header or footer where you want the page # to appear. On the Header & Footer Design tab, Navigation group, click on the Link to Previous icon. This breaks the link between sections and allows you to have different numbering schemes in different sections.
Insert the page number by clicking on the Page Number icon and select Format Page Numbers.
you control numbering on HEADERS and FOOTERS
by using SECTION BREAKS instead of ordinary page breaks
each new section can have a new header/footer and those have
lots of different restart numbering options
so use INSERT, Break, SECTION BREAK instead of PAGE BREAK
