If a document does not have chapters but only sections, how does one set up "Introduction" with roman numerals and the body text with arabic numerals?

  • Welcome to TeX.SE. Please provide a few more details. E.g., will "Introduction" be a numbered or an unnumbered section header? And, will there be a page break after the "Introduction" section? Finally, which document class are you using? – Mico May 22 '16 at 05:34

    The typical approach would be to issue \pagenumbering{roman} followed by \pagenumbering{arabic}. \pagenumbering resets the page number as well. If you want the numbers to be continues, see Continuing page numbering (roman to arabic). – Werner May 22 '16 at 05:46
  • Don't forget the \cleardoublepage in front of the \pagenumbering{<scheme>} command. It is important. – Johannes_B May 22 '16 at 10:17
  • @Johannes_B: is this question about page numbering at all? –  May 22 '16 at 20:42
  • @ChristianHupfer I think so. I think it could might as wel be: How can i have \frontmatter and \mainmatter with an article class. – Johannes_B May 22 '16 at 21:02
  • Of course, the question could be much more clear about that, Mico already asked for more information. – Johannes_B May 22 '16 at 21:02
  • @Johannes_B: It could be about using roman numbers for section numbers as well ... –  May 22 '16 at 21:07
  • @ChristianHupfer There is no use in guessing, we will need more information from the original poster. – Johannes_B May 22 '16 at 21:20
