I am generating a book using PrinceXML, and it is generally working very well.
I have set up my CSS to have my front matter (ToC, preface) using lower-roman page numbers, resetting to page 1 and switching to arabic numerals for the first chapter. This is showing up fine in the actual PDF content. However, the PDF metadata (and my apologies if "metadata" is the incorrect term here) is not affected by any of this.
Hence, what is displayed in the content as page iii is known to the PDF viewer as page 3. What is displayed in the content as page xxxii -- the last of my front matter -- is known as page 32 to the PDF viewer. Page 1 -- the first page in the body -- is known to the PDF viewer as page 33. And so on.
I know that I can always fix this up manually using Acrobat Pro by renumbering the pages. However, is there something that I am missing in the CSS or way that I am executing PrinceXML that is causing the page numbers to only affect the PDF content and not the metadata?
Thanks!
