I want to start page numbering on the second page. There is a footer and and running footer. I do not want page number on first page. I have tried thispagestyle{empty, plan} removes headers and footers. Tried \pagenumber{gobble} \pagenumber{arabic} Tried clear page set counter {page}{1} I have been at this two days. Can someone put me out of my misery?
