I don't understand why this is, but I have recently found that if you put \thispagestyle{empty} in the first page it won't have a page number. Depending on the contents of the page, it seems that it needs to appear shortly before the end of it (ie a \clearpage command). -D -- "GUIs normally make it simple to accomplish simple actions and impossible to accomplish complex actions." --Doug Gwyn (22/Jun/91 in comp.unix.wizards)
