flying saucer - page count with css

I'm using flying saucer to convert HTML data to PDF, but I've one issue to solve.

  • In my PDF the first page is a introductory page, so this page don't have a number.
  • The second page must have a number, and the number of page two must be 1. The thrid page must show Page 2 and etc.

I want the page counter to only begin on the second page.

How can I do it?

Solution

  • I've discovered. Just put "-fs-page-sequence" in a style on page that you want to start the counter, and the page counter will be reseted.

    For instance:

    <div style='-fs-page-sequence'></div>

    -fs-page-sequence: values start or auto (the default) and allows you to limit the scope of the page and pages counters to a portion of the document
