I want a document which has the cover numbered as ``A'', and page 1 (which comes after the cover and is the second page in the .pdf) to be numbered as page 1. See the attached .pdf which I've renumbered manually using Acrobat (sent directly to Czarek, since it made the message over-sized for the list)

I did that --- had to in order to get the cover numbered as ``A''.

The problem comes when I export to a .pdf --- I want Step 1, which is the second page in the .pdf to be numbered as page 1 --- when I export, the cover is 1 (should be ``A''), and Step 1 is page 2.

I had attached the Scribus file (w/ 2 pages, section one is page 1 numbered as ``A'', section two is page 2 numbered as ``1''), and a .pdf which I've renumbered manually using Acrobat --- if anyone is curious to see them, contact me off-list.
