Offsetting page numbers to match printed copies

All Categories / Working with Scores

Some PDFs may contain extra pages at the start of the score that aren’t paginated in print. To compensate for this, open the metadata panel and choose the Properties section, then tap the book icon next to the page thumbnail image. This allows you to set a page offset so your page numbers will match any page numbers displayed in the file or on printed copies. For example, if the first two pages of a PDF show as roman numerals i and ii, enter “-1” in the field to offset the first page backward 2 steps from the PDF’s page 1.
