In NetSuite’s Advanced PDF templates, you can control the starting page number and ensure that certain pages begin on either an odd or even page.
1. Default Page Numbering
- By default, the first page of a PDF is numbered 1.
- You can override this default using the
pagenumberattribute in the<body>tag.
Example:
<body pagenumber="5">
This will start the document numbering from page 5.
2. Setting Page Numbers with <pbr> Tag
- The
<pbr>(page break) tag can also be used to control page numbering. - When
pagenumberis set in the<pbr>tag, it defines the number of the new page that starts after the break. - If
pagenumberis not specified, the new page will automatically be assigned the current page number plus one.
Example:
<pbr pagenumber="10" /> <!-- The new page after the break starts at page number 10 -->
