# Staff Handbook

## Preface

The front pages of a book are often numbered in roman numerals. This handbook asks for them with one line under `page:`, `numbering: i`, and the footer writes the number in bold on the right.

| You write | Page 4 of 12 reads |
|:--|:--|
| `numbering: 1` | 4 / 12 (the default) |
| `numbering: i` | iv / xii |
| `numbering: I` | IV / XII |
| `numbering: a` | d / l |
| `numbering: A` | D / L |
| `numbering: Page {page} of {pages}` | Page 4 of 12 |
| `numbering: false` | no page number |

The style applies to `{page}` and `{pages}` wherever they appear, in the header or the footer.
