Well, that is what is to be expected. > Preface (second and third pages) -- numbered 4 and 5 I just played around a bit. As \frontmatter sets the pagestyle accordingly, the following should work (i.e. works for me): <title line> \thispagestyle{empty} % needed for page 1 \pagestyle{empty} <pretext> \frontmatter <toc> \mainmatter <main text> Does this fix the remaining problems?
