the page numbers in the document or section update automatically when
you add pages prior to&#160;it.</dd><p class="dlseparator"></p><dt class="dlterm">Start Page Numbering At </dt>

A–16 or A&#160;16). The prefix is limited to eight characters. <p>You
cannot enter a blank space by pressing the spacebar—copy and paste
a space character from the document window instead. Note that plus&#160;(+)
