TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We've recently switched our manuals to
being online-only. One of the vestigages
of the books is roman numerals for the
title and TOC. This is problematic for
the PDFs, though, because the viewer
numbers consecutively from the title
page on.
So, we're thinking of getting rid of
roman numerals and calling the title
page one so that the book page numbers
match the Acrobat reader's numbering.
My question is: does anyone have a
better idea? We're concerned because
this proposed style of numbering goes
against every normal print convention.
